Pantheon / Technological Occupations

House of Machinery and Technology Index
A.I. Personalities | Cybernetics and Enhancements | Digital Personas | Machinery | Robots and Automata | Technological Experts | Technological Occupations | Types of Mechas

With the increasing presence and relevance of Technology, it only seems natural that jobs and tasks relating to the subject begin to surface and soon become a dominant industry in its own right. This is becoming especially apparent as Technology has become ingrained into society overtime.

This House was commissioned to showcase and promote the several different job opportunities and occupations that have a very particular focus on Technology. As a result, it's inevitable to come across a series of computers and office desks at the upper floors. To the lower floor are heavy-maintinencd mechanical work. The scale of producing tech around these parts is akin to the Industrial Revolution, except the work ethics here are a lot more strict, yet also safer and beneficial for workers, much to their delight.

Greater Gods

Hackerman

Hackerman, God of Fictional Hacking (Hacker Man, Hackerbot)

^{his robot form}

• Greater God
• Symbol: His computers
• Alignment: Neutral Good
• Portfolio: Techno Wizard, Hollywood Hacking, Time Travel, Reviving Kung Fury, His Name Really Is Hackerman, Hyper-Competent Sidekick, Rapid-Fire Typing, Techno Babble
• Domain(s): Technology, Hacking, 80s
• Followers: Akira Shirase, Forge, Q, Foaly, Li Kohran
• Allies: Kung Fury, Thor, all of the GUAG White Hats, 9S, Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury, Yuki Nagato, Ax, Willow, Alec Hardison, Billy Cranston/Blue Power Ranger, Donatello, The Laughing Man, Vanellope von Schweetz
• Rivals: other non-White Hat hackers such as Sombra
• Enemies: Kung Fury's enemies, the Grand United Alliance of Machines, the Grand United Alliance of Destruction, Teseo
• There was a huge skirmish against SHOCKER and HYDRA, with Kung Fury right in the thick of it. Things weren't going well for the GUAG, and the Fury and a few others were the only ones still standing. And then a portal came out of nowhere right next to Fury and out came a familiar face.
  Kung Fury: Hackerman! What took you so long? It's been three years since you sent me here.
  Hackerman: What? I went in just a minute after you did. It seems there was an error in my code, the same error that took you too far back in time. But let's talk later.
• Turning their attention back to the situation at hand, Hackerman proceeded to turn the tides by hacking away the other fallen heroes' injuries, reviving them in the process before then changing into his robot form and helping drive the enemy back.
• As soon as the dust settled, Hackerman was warmly greeted and thanked for the rescue. Soon after, Hackerman went home to his new temple, which he had already hacked for himself, since he already assigned himself as a Pantheon deity during the fight. The Court of the Gods were a bit cross, but let it slide since trope he chose—Hollywood Hacking—fit him perfectly. He admits that he planned on taking Techno Wizard, but felt like there was no need to remove the Laughing Man.
• As the man who "hacked" Kung Fury across time, and into the Pantheon, with only some old-school equipment, and not even needing to be in a room all the time, he is—bar perhaps Overdeities—the most powerful hacker in the Pantheon, and thus the greatest threat to the Grand United Alliance of Machines. Given he's also able to hack injuries away, the GUAD has him on the top of their shit list, more so than Kung Fury himself.
  • Speaking of the first, he's willing to teach people how to do that.
  • That said, there is one deity who could give him a run for his money in terms of the wide applications of hacking; Teseo of the Grimoired Seven. The Serial Experiment's Septima, Hack the Planet, involves the manipulation of computer data from turning into physical matter and vice versa, which effectively makes him a Reality Warper. Being an Enemy Summoner, dropping a Humongous Mecha from cyberspace, creating Evil Knockoffs, digitizing an entire building, and bringing fictional characters to life are just one of many applications. Hackerman's encounter with the kid forced him to step up his game that reached phenomenal levels until it became an all-out showdown with the rest of the Seven and their enemies.
• Was assigned into the White Hats straight away, and is quickly regarded as one of its most powerful members. The House of Life and Death are also aware of his ability to bring people back to life. Or at least hack away their injuries.
• If Hackerman has any weakness at all, it's that it takes a few seconds for his hacks to take effect, and that he always has at least a keyboard on hand to do them. Of course, it's not certain if he does that for show, and he's not too old-fashioned to not update his tech (though he still keeps some of his old stuff).
  • Speaking of updates, he hacked into the House of Gaming once to get some of the latest computer games and had some interesting encounters.
    • One was with .GIFfany after he passively ended up playing a game she was in. Of course, she did as she usually did, and it seemed there would be no problems as Hackerman hasn't displayed any romantic interest besides loyalty to Kung Fury (with zero romantic subtext; that guy's Married to the Job). Of course, he has heard of her through the White Hats and he has hacked her so that she would at least behave in his presence.
    • It's through her that he's come to know of the Doki Doki Literature Club. And everybody grew concerned when, after hearing their entire story, he's offered to teach Monika (and any of the other girls if they so wish) his stuff. That said, having made moves to solidify her redemption by luring Baldi away when he cornered them, concerns aren't that high, especially since Hackerman can easily counter whatever Monika might try.
    • He heard of another person who also had Hackerman as a nickname they go by. At first, 9S was intimidated with how the android's out of his league in terms of power and applications, but then remembered he's still faster. Still, the offer to teach how to hack into the timeline sounds like something worth learning.

• Model Unit No.9 Type S was a YoRHa unit designed for scanning capabilities against machine lifeforms for the "Glory of Mankind", though he eventually managed to hack himself to be able to participate in combat. Despite doing a good job aiding 2B and collecting information and data about the past and mankind, 9S would face further turmoil as he would be confronted by rogue androids, Adam and Eve, who would explain the circumstances about the battle between mankind and the alien lifeforms who invaded thousands of years ago. After knocking back a titanic machine, he was captured by Adam with the intent of extracting information based on mankind before being freed by 2B and succumbing to a deadly epidemic known as the Logic Virus that would drive him insane. Though killed by 2B after a fight against Eve, =[9S=] would resurface thanks to backing up his memory data, but things would get worse later on as the Logic Virus became rampant and corrupted the entirety of YoRHa, with even 2B being infected and forcing herself to be killed by A2, an event that 9S arrived too late to see and interpret as the latter killing the former without mercy and setting off an intense rage. In his desire for vengeance, 9S would discover that humanity had been long extinct, that YoRHa units were seen as disposable, and that both androids and machines were made with the same memory processors which left a huge toll on his growing madness. Eventually, he would confront and battle A2 despite being affected by the Logic Virus again. Regardless of the outcome, 9S would pass away from his injuries, though the efforts of Pods 042 and 053 ensured that their memories and a backup body would be preserved for him to lead a new life in bliss with 2B and A2.
• Much like 2B, details on 9S ascending into the Pantheon were a bit of a mystery despite his tale being well-established, although a backup body of his began activation and he would venture out into the divine realms, quickly catching up about his presence in the Pantheon. Fortunately, his reunion with 2B came rather quickly and he was happy to be alongside her again and was eager to travel alongside her, feeling that together they could try to come up with a new way to live a life now that the Pantheon has given them a second chance. Of course, he was shocked that A2 had also ascended and was adamant about taking her on again, at least until 2B finally told 9S about the circumstances of her death, allowing him to set aside his grudge towards A2 and properly focus on the second chance he’s been given, though he still keeps caution on the rogue YoRHa unit for the most part. For now, 9S seems happy to be in the Pantheon, largely because, to him, it feels a lot more expansive, harmonious, and peaceful than the desolated Earth he came from, even if the divine realms still have their fair share of threats to deal with.
• 9S’s nature as a support unit means that his main purpose is to scout and collect data and data as designated by YorHa. To ensure this, he, alongside similar models, is programmed with a special ability to hack into machines be it sentient or inanimate, and assume control of them should they be successful. This is their way of proving themselves useful in combat despite not having the same power and finesse as a combat unit like 2B, but 9S nevertheless proves himself to be a capable scout and a fighter when the chips are down. Unlike most androids, he has an inquisitive, curious nature and often openly expresses himself about his thoughts and feelings in contrast to the generally quiet and professional nature of the other androids. This furthers his defining characteristic - his loyalty and love for 2B, whom he would do anything to spend time and provide assistance for, though this also leads to a fault of him being reckless, impulsive, and prone to acting emotionally should things go wrong. For now, being with 2B in the Pantheon mitigates 9S’s reckless tendencies as well as halting the maddening insanity he went through, not to mention humanity’s presence and the expansive scope of cultures and lifeforms in the divine realms mean that he might find further purpose beyond just being a support unit.
• Like 2B, 9S was surprised and interested by the different types of androids there were on the Pantheon. Naturally, his curiosity meant that he wanted to learn more about them and see what his inquisitiveness could lead to, though this also meant that 2B kept attention to make sure trouble didn't brew too much. While 2B herself was able to befriend many androids like Connor, Kara, Markus, most of the Red Ribbon Androids, and Vision, 9S quickly followed suit and he was able to converse with them for long periods, eager to learn from them just as much as he could learning about them. They quickly recognized how similar he was to an overly curious and determined person and found that rather endearing, though given his past, they felt that he does need some mentoring and support to make sure he doesn't let his emotions get the better of him, something that 2B took to heart after learning of 9S’s mental decline after 2B’s death. The more vicious and cruel androids like Dr. Gero and Cell did unnerve 9S due to the depths of their vileness as well as the latter’s overwhelming power. While he dislikes them a lot, 9S makes it a point to avoid them, especially considering that Gero and Cell are immune to his hacking ability due to their mostly biological nature, but he isn't above fighting them if need be.
• Compared to 2B who takes her battles and investigative works professionally, 9S is more prone to taking things seriously and emotionally to the point where he is the more adamant one in opposing machines, especially when he recommended taking out Pascal before eventually accepting her as an exception to the machines he's gotten so used to fighting against. As a result, he has a harder time determining the morality of machines in the Pantheon, though even without 2B’s influence, 9S is making some improvements in interacting with machines beyond just hostility and is aware that the Pantheon is a far different world compared to the one he is from. The House of Machinery and Technology appears to be a good starting point for 9S to start his newfound attempt to communicate and establish a relationship with machines that aren't hostile though it’s also clear that there are many benevolent robots and automata as much as there are malevolent ones. Hopefully, 9S’s hacking capabilities might help him out and even he's a bit surprised by how potent and devastating they are in comparison to other hacking capabilities.
• Given the world he came from, the role he served under YoRHa’s orders, and the destruction he's seen, 9S has some apprehension about machine lifeforms, and given recent events, he's trying to make an effort to overcome his grief, trauma, and his contempt towards them, especially given how many of the machines in the Pantheon were genuinely heroic and took pity in his plight and tale. Doctor Weil proved to possess the same capacity of hatred as 9S did, only instead of trauma and loss, Weil’s hatred was solely out of self-interest and a sense of entitlement and seeing robotics (or in his case, Reploids) as inferior. 9S was terrified by the the rage and spite Well possessed mainly because it caused him to self-reflect and realize just how destructive and messed up he was after 2B’s death and it is also for these reasons he hates Weil the most out of the ascended YoRHa units and is unhesitatingly cold and contemptuous towards him, vowing to kill Weil if they ever meet. The Reploid mass murderer was initially incensed by an android daring to challenge him but was then amused by his rage and his trauma and is interested in driving 9S into despair, hoping that he could pull a devious trick and convert him into his side, a prospect that he and the other YoRHa units aren't willing to allow.
  • Weil’s attention and his interest in 9S would cause the latter to look into Reploids and similar robotic beings like him. Fortunately, almost all of them were in opposition against Weil for the horrible actions he committed and they’ve been mainly sympathetic towards 9S for what he's been through, though they are wary of him due to his connection with the Logic Virus and seeing that it could make beings like them just as vicious and unstable as those afflicted with the Maverick Virus. Mega Man X and Zero maintain their wariness towards 9S because of that, but it also didn't stop them from feeling that they should help the android out in feeling better and getting better integrated into the Pantheon and they’re willing to encourage 9S to appreciate more about what he has at the moment, a sentiment he was touched by. The Vision himself was a victim of android persecution but understood that 9S was more so a victim of strict orders and being isolated from harsh truths, deciding that he would become better adjusted if given enough time to independently decide how his life in the Pantheon should be led as well as believing 9S would want a more free and tranquil life with his second chance. Fortunately, the idea of a functional yet affable machine society seems like something 9S would be keen on seeing, especially as someone like Doctor Light has made efforts to see such happen and the Autobots led by Optimus are content with seeing machines thrive peacefully with humans. It's a bit overwhelming for 9S, but he is happy to see how much of a difference the Pantheon offers when it comes to machines in comparison to where he came from.
• While aliens were indeed responsible for the war against mankind and their eventual extinction, they ceased to remain on Earth, hence 9S never encountering them. Even then, his curiosity did get him interested in the House of Extraterrestrials and being surprised by how affiliated technology and advanced machinery were to lots of alien species. While some like Clank were welcome to accept 9S as a friend and help him in his efforts to settle down in the Pantheon as a new home, others like Doctor Nefarious were much less willing, feeling annoyed that an android would dare to fight in the name of “squishes”, a term that 9S admittedly found pretty amusing, even if Nefarious proved a dangerous enemy who would be willing to look into YoRHa to further his tech. The same also applies to the Coluan invader, Brainiac, whose desire for knowledge and power leads to him invading and often destroying worlds for the sake of his collection. He has some interest in the YoRHa units for their unique physiology and mechanism, but 9S is justifiably mortified of Brainiac’s machinations and the lethality of his machines, even if the Coluan feels that 9S’s hacking capabilities are something he is keen to possess for his ends.
• When it came to humankind in the Pantheon, 9S was a bit overwhelmed by how to interact with and further understand them as many were accepting of robots and androids as much as some opposed their existence. Beings such as the Iron Giant and a certain T-800 unit who went by “Uncle Bob” were among some cybernetic beings who were interested and eventually affected by their experience with humanity and 9S was very intrigued by this, unsurprisingly getting along with the two as they quickly accepted 9S as a friend and got him involved with events that the YoRHa unit would remember, such as the Giant’s companion, Hogarth, being excited to to meet an android and challenge 9S’s understanding of humans and Bob’s newfound existentialism and talking about fate and choice, beliefs that 9S found difficult to fully comprehend, but left him inspired enough. Among humans, Victor Stone also caught interest as a human who was converted into a cyborg after a horrible freak accident and his current state is the result of an infusion with a highly advanced box not unlike those installed within YoRHa units. Despite 9S’s existential crisis about the origins of his creation, Victor affirmed that this shouldn't define him as a person and that he should just focus on what he wants to do in the Pantheon as well as empathizing with the feeling of loss, stating he's been there as well. And while Victor did feel that 9S’s hacking abilities were dangerous, he felt that empathy was the best way to handle him, which worked as the YoRHa unit confided in Victor being a “good man” in his own words and the two would hang out if they ever have the time to do so.
• 9S’s hacking abilities are among the most potent and devastating in the Pantheon as they allow him to break access into most forms of technology, inanimate or sentient, and force it into performing actions based on his decisions, being it operating as a hacked unit, detonating it, or leaking out intel and archives for himself. His abilities didn't go unnoticed by fellow hackers like Futaba Sakura and Hackerman, who quickly saw that 9S only uses hacking skills if he had to and accepted him as a fellow hacker to hang around with. Elliot Alderson was more reserved due to his turmoil in trusting others, not helped by his split personality in Mr. Robot being outright antagonistic towards anyone who didn't subscribe to his anarchist beliefs and goals, though fortunately Elliot and Mr. Robot have mellowed out and they've come to some form of understanding with 9S as both are mentally broken and grieving figures who use their hacking skills to solve their problems, only with Elliot, he found a greater purpose in trying to take down a malevolent organization controlling the world. 9S admitted to being inspired by Elliot's tale, however grim and tragic it was, and feels that he could find a bigger purpose for himself and his abilities. And though Elliot still retains his reclusiveness, he has some respect for 9S and honestly sees him as a friend.
• A very inquisitive and curious individual, 9S is the most adventurous if the ascended YoRHa units and naturally enjoys attending the House of Knowledge as that meant he could take his time in learning about all sorts of facts, archives, and information that he didn't know about in the past. With libraries being an open public space was an exciting prospect for 9S, though he also felt that scouting and exploring to collect data and info felt more in line for him as he does take some pride in his activity and whatever he accomplishes. While deified organizations dedicated to archiving and storing information are a rarity, 9S and the YoRHa units were topics of interest in the eyes of the SCP Foundation, who saw their physiology and capability for mental growth as intriguing anomalies that they’d like to keep on tabs with. Though the Foundation have cited the YoRHa units as human defenders given their built-in purpose, their unscrupulous methods to storing information and keeping their subjects held are hard to ignored, hence 9S’s decision to try to keep as minimal contact with them as possible.
• 9S may not be the only android who went through grief or insanity, though he does remain one who remained pitiable for it due to the hellish circumstances that drove him to such rage and anguish. And despite the heavy association with anger and grief, 9S would rather not be reminded of it, especially how his encounter with Weil showed him how destructive said anger could be if it was fuelled by nothing but spite and hatred. As a result, he has no interest in visiting the House of Revenge and Retribution, even if he admitted to finding a few figures whom he could relate with and understand the feeling of losing someone they held a close affection with. And with him and 2B being reunited, A2 seeking a greater purpose for herself, and Pods 042 and 153 desiring a better outcome for all of them, 9S would wisen up and decide that revenge is best left unserved, though he internally does feel that he has an internal drive for hate and rage that he feels would never really go away and that the best way to deal with it would be to temper and restrain it as much as he can. On a brighter note, 9S’s further encounters with A2 have been more amicable, even if the former has trouble talking to her due to the history the two have in their home realm, though the latter will assert that despite their troubles, 9S still has a chance to appreciate life and Earth and should aim for that.
• Since his ascension, 9S admits to being afraid of relapsing back into his frenzied and anguished state and also feels that he may never be completely free of being susceptible to it, though many of his newfound friends in the Pantheon, as well as 2B, are doing their best to make sure 9S doesn't fall back to it and to assure him that he doesn't have to be defined by his past. Through 9S’s personal experience in the Pantheon, the House of Madness and Insanity does intimidate him due to the whole place and its inhabitants giving him an unpleasant reminder of his moments after 2B’s death, but he does sympathize and pity those who have been through a similar predicament as he did. Even so, he didn't expect to have a strong similarity with Count Bleck, of all people, who was driven to destruction after believing he lost his lover. On Beck’s end, he found 9S to be strangely reminiscent of his past self, only without anyone to truly reign him from his self-destructive tendencies and the full context of YoRHa’s existence worsening that. Thankfully, while the two don't meet often, 9S and Bleck have some positive acknowledgment for each other and they agree on trying to find a way to recover from their past selves if possible, though Bleck isn't above teasing 9S for his obvious affection towards 2B as much as he tries to dodge the subject.
  • One of the most tragic aspects of 9S is that no matter what he does or goes through, 2B is ordered to kill him to bar him from learning about humanity’s fate. Ironically, 2B’s death would allow 9S to learn more about humanity’s extinction as well as the origin of YoRHa and the machine lifeforms, which only furthered his insanity. Even after ascending into the Pantheon and being given a second chance, 9S admits to still being rattled by what he had to learn from the archives and documents he collected and read. While most of the Pantheon is open to allowing information to be available for others, Big Brother proved to be a grave exception and an antithesis to 9S’s curiosity as the government not only wants to lock away information but also twist them and whatever narrative it has its hands on for better brainwashing and controlling its populace and asserting it's dystopic dominance. Ironically, it's Big Brother who fears and disdains 9S more due to his hacking abilities and for proving himself resilient and determined and the dystopian government seeks to one day quash the YoRHa android to preserve itself, whereas while 9S does oppose Big Brother, it was for the best that he focuses on taking care of himself, though he has no problems fighting Big Brother if he has to.
    • If there was a figure outside of Weil that intimidates 9S for being eerily reminiscent, that would be Yan Vismok, a Messenger serving a syndicate known as the Index who initially served his Prescripts diligently, until he became jaded by most of the Prescripts being horrible actions and tried to rebel, only to realize that said rebellion wasn't only predicted, but that the Prescripts themselves were influenced by human sins and criminal acts, something that drove Van insane and morphing him into a robotic monstrosity called 얀샋ㄷ요무 and following the Prescripts without fail, coming to terms with the futility of his actions. Needless to say, 9S was rattled about his similarities and learning how the Index Proselytes were much like YoRHa units — fodders and victims to a bigger conspiracy and being fed lies to keep them complacent, himself included. 9S pities Yan, though keeps his distance because of a combination of him being a powerful foe and for reminding the android a bit much about his own darkest days.
• He also has a place in the Hall of Game Modes

2B and I — our battle will continue for some time to come. But that's another story for another day.

• Enemies: The Spy, Gray Mann, Merasmus, Monoculus and the HHH, Dr. Nefarious, Cave Johnson, every single Mad Scientist ever, GLaDOS, Doctor Boom, Sundowner, Ragnaros the Firelord, anyone else who uses EMPs and other anti-technology weapons.
• Respects: John Carmack
• Watching Over: Aiden Pearce
• Very Interested with: Aigis, The IS Research members.
• Ascended after an alien ship crashed in his home, exposing him to a whole new world of technological possibilities.
• With his ascension, he wanted to move a lot of gear up and place sentries around the House of Technology and wished to be the guardian around the House.
  • Unfortunately, GLaDOS' ascension halted his progress and as a result denied his request of guarding the house. Disappointed, he went back to his temple. But secretly, he has been erecting sentries around the House without her notice. Upon discovery, she decided to leave it be, since the House of Technology could have some added defense.
• Spends most of his time in the workshop tinkering or studying the properties of various forms of Unobtanium.
• Sentries aren't the only thing he builds: he can also build Dispensers, which can heal injuries and replenish ammo, as well as one-way teleporters (sometimes two-way). Both of them work completely fine though do not teleport pure-wheat bread through the teleporters. It will cause the bread to mutate and cause bad things to happen.
• Works well with Eddie Riggs, God of Roadies.
• Despite being Chaotic Neutral, he does not like mad scientists. In fact, he HATES them because it ruins his reputation of being "a simple engineer" moreso since his dad, Radigan Conagher was mostly called a mad scientist despite his intentions and his inventions proving otherwise. Due to this, Dr. Nefarious and Cave Johnson are in his shit list. This doesn't make Ragyo and Albert Wesker safe either as he overheard their actions, particularly Ragyo.
• Due to his knack of creating weapons made out of engineering and medical tools, Isaac Clarke has gotten to a friendly competition with him.
  • However, as time goes by, it seems that both gods have been starting to improve their relationship and as a result have been passing over weapon and turret schematics from each side. As a result, Dell and Isaac became best friends and started on experimenting on weapon prototypes, with Dell having more jealousy towards Isaac's results
• Has been trying to get his friend (and possibly girlfriend) Pyro deified (and succeeded). Partly to keep the Spy out of the House of Technology.
• Has found fellow Texans in the form of Hank Hill and Sonya Blade.
  • However, upon meeting a Texan by the name of Sundowner, he started getting angry and pissed while he was mocking his Texan accent. This made it worse when the Engineer found about the Wild Fire's actions of playing dirty and his recruitment of child soldiers. Because of his actions, The Engineer's made sure he has a shotgun shell with Sundowner's name on it.
• Despite being teammates, Tavish DeGroot's presence within the Pantheon has made Dell getting paranoid due to the Demoman's constant spamming of sitcky grenades.
  • Unfortunately, upon Gray Mann's ascension into Pantheon proper, he started fortifying every single turret placement he had around the House, fearing of what Gray will do upon hearing the mercenaries' ascension.
• He has a bad taste within the House of Philosophy due to his horrible taste with philosophical views and that the members of the House kept questioning him about Philosophy.. Upon leaving, he ended up responding them this:
  "Boy, I don't solve those problems. I solve practical problems."
• Upon meeting with a goblin by the moniker of Dr. Boom, he immediately fired his shotgun at his Boom-bots since they look like Gray Mann's Sentry Busters. However, upon closer inspection to these bots, he became even more scared when he saw the explosive damage of the Boom-bots. As a result, he kicked Dr. Boom out of the House and is willing to push him out should he send his Boom-bots right at him.
• His defensive playstyle along with his thinking has given him an ally of Mike Schmidt whose tactical doors can serve as good traps for his turrets.
• He also has great respect upon hearing of what Dexter and Phineas Flynn has done, despite being very young to achieve such technological advancemnts. Because of this, he respects them.
  • Not only that, he has become a mentor for very young inventors within the Pantheon. Tails and Jim Hawking from the Outlaw Star Crew are very frequent students as well as Dexter.
• He has also made extreme allies with Tiny Tina due to the child's knack of creating such explosive ideas. At the same time, he became friends with Ratchet and Clank thanks to their mechanical achievements and being enemies with Dr. Nefarious.
• Upon visiting the Heavy's temple, he was astonished when he met another Intermediate God along with him: Aigis. Due to the latter's interest with Dell's turret modules and the need to improve her armour, they became constant visitors to their own temples. At the same time, he ponders how a robot can fit more than 3 weapons inside herself.
  • That said, this event similarly happened during the time when he met Ichika Orimura and the entire IS crew. They were also interested in his modules and at the same time, the Engineer seems interested at the power armors. They eventually became helpers to their own creations.
• Was very impressed about Tony's achievement of building an Iron Man suit, in a cave, WITH JUST A SCRAP OF METAL.
• Sometimes goes to the House of Musicality to play his guitar away from any flammables in his workshop. His soft tunes have earned him a small following of non-ascendents.
• Upon the ascension of a certain hacker by the name of Aiden Pearce, he immediately watched him upon hearing what he can do to certain systems.
• Due to his skill in creating very effective defensive ballistic turrets, he has been contacted by many gods in the Pantheon but most espcially within the GUAG and GUAE to aid them in many situations.
• Wearing a white cowboy hat and his Gunslinger, he once participated in a wacko battle when suddenly some deity named "Spunky the Imp" came in and wrecked chaos, forcing him to save the entire map from destruction.
• Vulcan has shown interest in his ever growing Sentry designs and speaks with the mercenary when he has the time. The two have even trade notes, with Vulcan working on his own level two and three turrets while the Engineer's taken a shot at the old pile bunker model.
• Upon hearing of Ragnaros the Firelord's ascension and The Pyro's allegiance to him, Dell immediately became frightened and called all his mercenary teammates including Saxton Hale and Gray Mann (when necessary) to prepare an all-out assault on the Firelord in the case that the Pyro is ordered to incinerate his team under Ragnaros' orders.
  • After having a "little" encounter with the Firelord, a man by the name of Lord Victor Nefarius came in and consulted the Engineer in installing his Omnotron Defense System. In actuality, Nefarius wanted to seep through the info from the House of Technology using his system. However, the convoluted defense matrix followed by insane programming and suspiciously huge mechanisms of the Defense System itself forced Dell to nope Nefarious away. Ironically, The Engineer did not notice that Nefarius was actually the Black Dragon Nefarian.
• He is a large fan of Fallout, as evidenced by him creating one by himself.
  • Not only that, he has a huge amount of respect towards The Courier, The Vault Dweller and the Liberty Prime. (And yes, it includes the Yes Man.)
• Somehow, there are many reports of a certain figure that not only looks like Dell, but has very powerful strength, moves inconspicuously and has a face resembling a human genitalia. Dell refuses to comment due to extreme likability with said creature.
• With some extra funds, he managed to mass produce a merchendise product known as the Tiny Desk Engineer. He's more than glad of his new creation.
  Engineer: It's beautiful.
• After seeing his rival Torbjörn in action, The Engineer was inspired to travel into the Crosswind Hold and met up with a dwarvish 'engineer' Barik. While not enough to ascend him as a High Priest, The Engineer taught all he could to Barik and even lent him his outfit AND his Texan accent
• "And if that don't work, then use more gun!"

Lesser Gods

Aiden Pearce

Aiden Pearce, God of "Evil" Hackers (The Vigilante, The Fox)

• Lesser God with his smartphone, Demigod without it
• Symbol: His smartphone
• Alignment: Chaotic Neutral, leaning on Good
• Portfolio: hacking computers for info and/or money, Coat, Hat, Mask, fox-like cunning, "hacking" people just as well, being a vigilante, do-most-anything smartphone, above-human reflexes, heightened awareness, hurting innocents in the name of Revenge for his dead niece, awesome biking and driving skills
• Domains: Technology, Vigilantism, Revenge
• Allies: The Laughing Man, DedSec San Francisco chapter, the Assassin Brotherhood (probably), Adrian Chase/Vigilante, Alec Hardison, The Shadow Client, Michael Westen
• Rivals: The "Hacking Quintet" (Ed, Bentley, Shiena Kenmochi, Otacon, Estonia), Sombra, 9S, Frank Castle/The Punisher
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Elliot Alderson/Mr. Robot, Phillip Price, Tyrell Wellick
• Enemies: Many in the House of Machinery and Technology and Crime and Transgressions, Anybody in the human trafficking (and by extension, slavery) business, The Slavers, Death Gun, The Fazbear Gang, The Dark Army, Asuka Hiiragi, Malware
• Friendly Enemies: Mike Ehrmantraut
• Under Close Watch Of: Dell Conagher
• Opposed by: Mitsuki Hokuto
• Feared by: Raul Menendez
• It should be made clear the difference between the Hackers and Crackers. Crackers like Aiden hack for money or data. Hackers do it either just for fun or to plant viruses.
• Many of Aiden's enemies fear him mainly because of what he can do with only his smartphone, which has been upgraded upon his ascension. Thankfully however, whoever had upgraded it also installed countermeasures that prevent him from controlling or compromising sentient machines (like the Cybertronians and Intelligent Devices of the Mid-Childan and Belkian goddesses). And it only works around technology, making him somewhat less of a threat in places like the House of Magic (unless perhaps when in the vicinity of Magitek).
  • Because of his "power" over all things technology, he's also given a wary eye by the Pokémon trainers and gods with partners in the Pantheon, since who knows if he can lock their Pokémon inside their Poké Balls, thus giving them a disadvantage.
• Aiden can occasionally be found in the House of Commerce whenever he needs money, using his smartphone to hack into bank accounts and siphoning money to pick up at the nearest ATM. Though his threat level is limited there due to how (some) money is handled in the Pantheon, and from the ones with digital accounts (like Seto Kaiba) upgrading their security systems.
• There have been rumors that Aiden was once outsourced by the Assassin Order to kill a Templar. Both parties have refused to elaborate or confirm this, though it's implied he at least sympathizes with their cause, even though his…measures don't really qualify him to be invited to the Brotherhood.
  • Similarities have also been drawn between him and Frank Castle/The Punisher, like how both lost family (though the Punisher lost way more than just a niece), and both became vigilantes to avenge their deaths (though Aiden might've been already a vigilante before then). That said, Aiden's far above Frank in regards to sparing petty thieves and criminals where the Punisher certainly won't.
• Numerous gods have point-blank called Aidan a hypocrite who causes a lot of innocent people to get hurt while on his quest for revenge, with some even pointing out that one time, Aiden went through someone's niece to get to her uncle. Also, his lack of problems with killing anyone who gets in his way is also brought up as a flaw, and as such, a fair few people tend to steer clear of him.
  • But now that he's finally achieved his revenge at the end of his game, he has since dedicated himself to vigilantism, though his methods are still a tad excessive, controlled only by "tech-less" areas and deities in the Pantheon.
  • He's also managed to earn a little more brownie points when he outsmarted Raul Menendez's system during his attack on the Pantheon. Aiden had hacked several of his drones into destroying each other or used them as his platforms. Raul was not satisfied when he heard of this.
  • The sequel reveals that canonically, in addition to shutting down a human trafficking ring (which is an optional sidequest in his game), he actually avoided civilian casualties. But the tarnish has already been done, and it's argued that one can still cause mayhem without killing people.
• The Laughing Man gets along with Aiden, since the two have a similar level of skill when it comes to hacking technological items for their use. They are also considered criminals in a sense, despite not being truly malicious.
• Adrian Chase/Vigilante caught a lucky break meeting Aiden and the San Francisco DedSec, who were hacker vigilantes with a reputable fame for going against crime, though Aiden had the personal reason of wanting to avenge his niece who was collateral damage for a hit meant for Aiden, a feeling that Vigilante knew all too well. He ended up being a secret confidant of sorts, serving as a marksman for Aiden and the SF DedSec in taking out targets from afar, though Adrian makes it clear he's only incapacitating them out of concern for his own well-being, despite understanding Aiden's former desire for vengeance.
• Hated by the Fazbear Gang because during his one shift at their establishment, Aiden tampered with the animatronics using his hacking skills.
• Has taken notice of Elliot Alderson/Mr. Robot and offered him an alliance to take down those who exploit people using money and technology. Elliot is respectful of Aiden, but the extremity of his methods and his willingness to sometimes have innocent people involved in his crusade makes Elliot rebound in doubt. Mr. Robot however is more than willing to join Aiden, believing that destruction and damage is inevitable when it comes to revolution.
• Ever since he attempted to hack into Asuka Hiiragi's Xiphone, she has become increasingly weary over his superb hacking skills, as she does not want her info of Nemesis, the Eclipse, the Greeds, and Soul Devices to be made public in the mortal world. Asuka has tracked down Aiden a couple of times just to prevent him from spreading the info, making Aiden a constant enemy to Asuka.
• Given that family is a major motivator for his criminal activities, Mike Ehrmantraut did share a mutual trait with Aiden, who went on a crusade against a large mob organization who were responsible for his niece's death^note in an assassination attempt that was meant to kill him. While Mike concedes that the mob and its boss, Lucky Quinn were abhorrent pieces of work who were better off dead, he also thinks that Aiden was reckless and destructive in his pursuit of vengeance and that he should have tried to think things more carefully than he did, even Mike wasn't too knowledgeable about smartphones, provided he died just a year or two before they became predominant. That said, Gus's business doesn't directly clash with Aiden, so they're not in conflict... yet, and Mike personally doesn't have anything against Aiden other than some constructive criticism, and the latter was rather open to accepting it for the time being. While both would likely fight against each other due to their conflicting professions, Mike would rather not engage in such with Aiden, feeling that battling him wouldn't help either of the two.

Fix-It Felix Jr.

Felix, God of Fixing (Fix-It Felix Jr.)

• Lesser God
• Symbol: His golden hammer
• Theme Song: Fix-It Felix
• Alignment: Neutral Good
• Catchphrase: "I can fix it!"
• Portfolio: Ability to fix anything with his hammer, being loved by everyone, Wall Jump, able to heal anything with his hammer but ONLY heal, heroes to look up to, Percussive Maintenance
• Domains: Technology, Video Games, Fixing
• Allies: Wreck-It Ralph, Segeant Calhoun (his wife), Mario, Luigi, Vanellope Von Schweetz, Tails, Emmet Brickowski, Wander
• Enemies: Turbo, Lord Hater
• When Ralph came into the Pantheon, Felix asked to come along for the ride. His reasons: 1) it's his job to fix up any messes Ralph makes and 2) so he can be with his good friend.
• His hammer has become a blessing to the Pantheon. With one strike, he's able to fix anything whether it be walls, fortresses, injuries, broken hearts, etc. However, it can ONLY be used for healing or repairing. One time when he was stuck in jail, Felix accidentally used it to make the weak bars become twice as thick than usual. As he notes, "Why do I fix everything I touch?!"
• A couple gods have asked if he's Mario's long lost third twin since he arrived, but with good charm he points out, "No mustache."
• Has been seen "fighting" Ralph whenever the two are working, and then going to the House of Food with him once they get time off.
• Often asks why Sergeant Calhoun never ascended, since she's now his wife. The gods at this time haven't found a proper place for her.
  • Finally, she was able to ascend into her own house; the Hall of Soldier Archetypes (A To M) fittingly enough. She was more than happy to announce her ascension to her husband by lifting him up to kiss him before threatening to smite any of his enemies, which he just laughed her and assure her he was okay for now.
• Gets along famously with Emmett due to their shared background in construction. Also enjoys the company of Wander due to the both of them having similar upbeat attitudes, among other similarities These similarities to Wander didn't go unnoticed by Lord Hater and has sworn to destroy the two of them. Despite Wander insisting that Hater really isn't a bad guy once you get to know him, Felix is nevertheless weary around him.
• Also present in the House of Craft. While he used to have a spot in the House of Gaming, he still makes visits to that house every now and then.

Radical Ed

Ed, Goddess of Playful Hacking (Radical Ed, Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, Francoise Appledelhi, Kairi)

• Lesser Goddess
• Symbol: A smiley face with red spiky hair. Alternatively, her laptop with Ein sleeping next to it.
• Theme Music: Cats on Mars, Call Me Call Me
• Alignment: Chaotic Good
• Portfolio: Energetic Girls, Prefers Going Barefoot, Permanent Blush, Cloud Cuckoo Lander, Having a Really Long Made-Up Name (that was male to begin with), Having a Canine Companion, Hacking Goggles, Speaking in Third Person
• Domains: Trickery, Technology, Hacking, Exploring
• Followers: Raf Esquivel, Rikku
• Herald: Ein (her "data dog")
• Allies: Spike Spiegel, Faye Valentine, Jet Black, most of the gods in the House of Machinery and Technology, Mugen, Jin, and Fuu, Pinkie Pie, Sora, Riku, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Tulip Olsen
  • Fellow White Hat hackers: Otacon, Bentley Turtle, Shiena Kenmochi, Estonia, Tron
  • Partner: Millenniumon
• Enemies: Evil gods in the House of Machinery and Technology (particularly the Master Control Program and The Laughing Man), Sark
• Friendly Enemy: Noah Kaiba
• Opposes: Funny Valentine, Enrico Pucci
• Odd Friendship: Hit
• After leaving the Bebop to find the place that was her own, she and Ein eventually went on a hacking spree arresting criminals left and right. Then, she found out about the Pantheon and decided to rest there. Before she made it to the pantheon, there were reports that Radical Ed was supposedly a seven foot tall ex-basketball pro, Hindu guru drag queen alien. Those who bet that she wasn't any of these things became quite rich.
• Likes to mess around the pantheon, but she never does any harm. Her hacking skills come to good use seeing as she can go through many traps and viruses laid out by some of the evil gods in the Pantheon and pull up information that most people would be unable to find. And if there's some that she can't get through, that's where Ein, the Data Dog, comes in.
  • Has gotten the eye of the other hacker The Laughing Man and the two have been going on in a never-ending chess match to see who's the smartest.
• She has access to a satellite that she calls "MPU" (it's like CPU, only cooler!). She hasn't used it to cause harm—but rather to doodle smiley faces onto the Pantheon. However, this made her cause strain with one Carly Nagisa when they first met, since Ed's satellite made doodles due to them being curious of the Nazca lines...and Carly herself was the avatar of the hummingbird. Thankfully, the two became friends pretty quickly with Ed using her hacking skills to aid Carly when she has a scoop.
• Ed was shown to have a crush on Sora when the two first met on a Friday the 13th. However, Kairi ascended not long afterwards, and Ed, knowing that Kairi should be treated fairly, began to see Sora as a brother, instead. The two remained good friends, and sometimes Sora helps Ed bust out of jail whenever the MCP arrests her.
• During an expedition to stop the Plot Hole, she gave her blessing of technological smarts to one of the members on board in order to help the crew. An electric shock turned the critic back to normal, but a part of Ed still resides in her mind.
• Spends lots of time with two gods: Steve Blum and Haruhi Suzumiya because they remind her of her old Bebop crew members Spike Spiegel and Faye Valentine. Haruhi really warmed up to Ed, mostly because her computer skills would definitely come in handy to generate new members for the SOS club.
• She hasn't tried to hack anything related to Valve or Garry's Mod for a long time. Last time she tried, she was met by a strange Sean Connery lookalike who kept throwing computer monitors at her.
• Ed was stated to be jumping for joy when she found out that Spike had made it to the pantheon. A few months later, Faye made it in as well. Now they just need Jet to finish the Bebop crew...which eventually happened, to which all she could do was cry Tears of Joy to find everyone back together.
• Ed has declined asking her father to become one of her heralds. Not because he's abusive, but because he's so busy with his work that he completely forgot about her in order to complete it. She's not mad, because she still has the Bebop crew and her new friends in the Pantheon to keep her company.
• While searching on the web, Ed found a curious game called "Good Guys Popping Bad Guys". She found it to be a bit "meh" and decided to hack into it to really make it fun. Of course, this got the ire of the game's creator, Tulip Olsen, and the two deities were playing a game of chess before it ended in a draw. Ed then invited Tulip to visit the temple...only to look in confusion to find that Tulip had no reflection. Tulip had a long talk over why she doesn't have a reflection before they talked about their individual backstories. Tulip is a bit sad that Ed's father is worse than her's, but she's happy that Ed has the Cowboy Bebop crew and Ein to keep her company. Tulip also has affection for Ein since the data dog reminds her a lot of her own denizen partner, Atticus.

• During a hacking duel between the White Hats and their enemies on a certain facility for a certain file, a strange logo with a skull appeared in the terminals on both sides of the conflict. Someone asked if this was Sombra, hearing rumors of her pending ascension, but not hearing that she's already ascended. Aiden Pearce however, a member of the White Hats, recognized the symbol as DedSec, an organization of crackers like himself. He wonders if they're finally here to get back on him for not putting their ghost code into ctOS so they can be "the watchdogs" over the system when they asked him to.
  • Except it turns out to be the chapter in San Francisco, who have helped him once in his anti-human trafficking crusade. Their main "field operative" Marcus Holloway, had been investigating the same human trafficking ring he was at the time. Once the mission was over, which ended in a White Hats victory, after DedSec was investigated and its members identified, Aiden vouched for them and Marcus and his team were ascended.
  • And part of their "welcome package" is a software upgrade from Aiden (as privilege of being the first in their series to ascend) so their tech can better affect stuff in the Pantheon.
• Deep in DedSec's temple is a 3D Printer in which Marcus and friends 'forge' guns and drones. Of course, there're much more in the Pantheon, but some of DedSec's customized firearms come with "auto-hacking" and non-lethal electric shock options.
• Unlike the DedSec chapter Aiden encountered in his revenge rampage in Chicago, while they use the same tactics, the San Francisco chapter is otherwise far more dedicated to doing actual good and has no connection to the Council of Daves.
• Many deities are impressed with Wrench's Expressive Mask and those who've seen his real face beneath think the mask is much cooler, and find the ASCII symbols that emulate his eyes hilarious and quirky. It's also begun to set a trend of masks like his (or variations thereof) that can mimic expressions, and many mask-wearing deities (like Murakumo) have been pulled in by their friends to try out masks like these so they can better express themselves without having to show their faces.
• Upon hearing of their crusade against Blume and its ctOS, and how its system is a lot more frightening than Abstergo's, Ezio (with a little help from Desmond regarding modern technology) expresses his gratitude for fighting for the right of people's free will.
• When not doing their hacking, the group tend to wander the Pantheon separately. Sitara in particular can be found in the House of Craft painting on any available walls, Wrench can be seen tinkering with stuff in the House of Technology or in the House of Musicality enjoying the rock bands (Sitara can be seen there too whenever she's DJing), and T-Bone can be seen hanging with Aiden, catching up on old times.
  • Wrench has a strong dislike for all animals, is nervous around and of them, and his mood with those on varied ends of the Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism varies, from as much distrust from Nearly Normal to Civilized Animals, considerably more distrust on Funny Animals and Beast Men, to mere intense discomfort around Little Bit Beastly people. He's only able to compose himself enough to be civil when he's with another non-animal ally doing much of the talking.
• Harming or killing (easily remedied here) one of their members or their friends is a quick way to get DedSec after you. Others are harming innocent people, violating their rights, hacking hospitals (a serious taboo among hackers in their world), stealing Wrench's mask…
• Having dealt with shady nanotech business before, they're concerned with fellow White Hat Iji Kataiser, who is covered in the stuff and made a cyborg because of it. They do sympathize with her situation though, as her 'creators' had little choice in their circumstances when they made her who she is.
• Had unfortunately encountered Malware one day when they found the Mechamorph inside their temple downloading most of their computer data into himself. Having never heard about Malware before, the group charged the Mechamorphs with their weapons in hand, only for Malware to immediately absorb their weapons and quickly overwhelm the group. Thankfully, the hackers were able to make a quick getaway when Aiden Pearce, who had snuck into the temple when he saw Malware enter it, overloaded the temple's fuse panel, causing an explosion that distracted Malware while the group made their escape. The entire chapter was shaken by the experience, and are currently finding out any weaknesses that Malware so that they can put an end to him.

Sombra

Iniciando el protocolo Sombra

Sombra, Goddess of Hacking Anything (Sombrero, Olivia Colomar)

• Lesser Goddess
• Symbol: A sugar skull
• Theme Song: Sombra Origins
• Alignment: Between Neutral Evil and Chaotic Neutral
• Portfolio: Alternate Reality Game, Child Prodigy, Color Motifs, Confusion Fu, The Cracker, Dark Action Girl, EMP, Enigmatic Minion, Evil Tastes Good, Femme Fatalons, Hidden Agenda Villain, Hit-and-Run Tactics, Manipulative Bitch, Pragmatic Villainy, Purple Is Powerful, The Sneaky Gal, Wild Card, "Boop!"
• Domains: Hacking, Conspiracies, Technology, Blackmail
• Allies: Gabriel Reyes/Reaper, Amélie Lacroix/Widowmaker, Akande Ogundimu/Doomfist, Moira O'Deorain; other than those, she isn't interested in allying with other people unless it suits her needs
• Rivals: Aiden Pearce, Laura Matsuda, Scarface, The Spy
• Enemies: Overwatch and its allies, the GUAG White Hats, all Good-aligned robotic deities, all Digimon deities, Clu, Nora Valkyrie, Rubick, Dr. 8, robotic deities in general (especially 9S)
• Nobody knows who Sombra really is, but many have heard what she is capable of. She is one of the best hackers of her world and that caught the attention of Talon, who recruited Sombra for their sinister schemes. Her identity and motivations are a complete mystery, but there have been rumors that she is looking to uncover a big conspiracy that has been acting behind the scenes and is behind a lot of events in the world of Overwatch.
• Sombra's knowledges of her world's technology plus the augmentations she underwent to get better at hacking has made her able to hack pretty much anything. Her hacks are strong enough to disable McCree's ability to roll or make Soldier:76 unable to run… or even allow Junkrat to lay his explosives or Roadhog to toss his hook. Now that's something nobody gets at all, and the duo are cross that she can somehow do that.
• Before she ascended, she left hints and clues about her whereabouts, teasing those who found them with countdowns and unhelpful messages. After a drawn out investigation (she actually made misleading hints that she's going to be in the Main House or something), Sombra relocated herself in the house of Technology without the Main House noticing but after a while they let her stay.
  • Somebody once tried to decipher a code of hers that was supposedly caught in the sky and even made music out of it. She found that really funny.
• Very happy that her buddies Reaper and Widowmaker are already here. Unlike her, they are not so thrilled about her but they have no choice but to deal with her. After all, it doesn't hurt to have another member of Talon.
• Sombra likes to take a more subtle approach when it comes to combat, and thanks to her Thermoptic Camo she is able to go around unnoticed. That's until the cloaking runs out, because she has a nasty habit of announcing herself before attacking someone. Though thankfully she does this much less often as she did before.
  • Many found her very similar to the Spy in terms of combat, but Sombra believes that the Spy's technology is outdated and can be easily seen through. Though she knows that turning her back on him can be a fatal mistake, so she is sure to never do that.
• She likes to annoy people by booping them in the nose, and she does that a lot. On another note, Nora doesn't like her boops, mostly because it just very similar to hers but used in a trolly manner.
• There was one time that Sombra decided to mess with some of the Defenders of the Ancient. After a succession of weird and unusual events, Rubick stole her hack and somehow fixed everything. Don't ask
• Apparently, a few deities keep confusing her with Laura Matsuda given their similar haircuts. This made her curious about Laura for a few days…until they actually met. Sombra found the Brazilian fighter easy to relentlessly troll because of her friendly disposition and casually loose fashion sense, but overall, they are worlds apart both as fighters and as people and Sombra is content to let it stay that way.
  • When it turned out their native countries of Brazil and Mexico would face off in the elimination stages of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, Laura challenged her to a bet for the equivalent of $100 USD in their native currencies. Sombra accepted, hoping to gain new funds for her plans. However, Brazil won 2-0 and she had to cough up near $1863.30 in Mexican pesos. She's plotting how to get that money back.
• She is one of the few deities that has found her way into the Grid, even having her own avatar there. Many virtual deities fear what she might do there and so have taken extra measures to keep her out, but she always finds a way to get in.
• Many robotic deities are openly opposed to Sombra not only because she is able to mess with their programming, but because she also able to use an EMP at any given time. This was one of the only reason why no on wanted her near the House of Machinery and Technology but she sneaked her way in anyway. She even has a temple there.
• People like to call her Sombrero given her heritage. She doesn't find it that funny to be honest.
• Due to her first target being a somewhat corrupt corporation (LumeriCo) and having a rather affable personality, Sombra is often seen as some sort of anti-corporate freedom fighter that is on the same level of Lucio and his fight against Vishkar. Sombra just chuckled at that; they can think whatever they like about her, but she really has 'other' motivations, while those fools just assumed the anti-corporate thing as some sort of confirmation bias when she struck against LumeriCo for her own reasons, and maybe the day will come where she'll manipulate Lucio. But speaking of Vishkar, she kind of enjoys annoying its ace Symmetra by booping her on the nose when opportunity presents itself.
  • Though she'll deny that the dirty secret of Lucio that she found out was that he has a frog he named Beyonce. Nope, that's so not true.
• She dislikes Harry Dresden due to his magic damaging her technology. After her first attempt at messing with him resulted in her technology being almost destroyed, she keeps her distance.
• She and the Spy once engaged in a rap battle. Which turned out to merely be another Spy disguised as Sombra. Sombra herself didn't even bother to attend and just sent Widowmaker to assassinate both Spies.
• "Everything can be hacked...and everyone."
• Can also be found in the House of Crime.

Winry Rockbell

• Complicated Relationship: Scar (Fullmetal Alchemist)
• On speaking terms with: Solf J. Kimblee
• The seat for Wrench Wench was left vacant after its previous holder, Gadget Hackwrench, was moved to the Anthropomorphic Animals sub-house to hold the trope Furry Female Mane. Noting this absence, Edward Elric realized there was only one other person who can hold this title; his automail mechanic childhood friend Winry Rockbell. The Court of the Gods agreed with his decision, and brought her up to the Pantheon.
  • It also helps that he was looking for such an opening in the first place because no one knows his automail better than her. Them being married is another reason she was ascended.
• With her grandmother Pinako, Winry's temple was opened as an atelier named Rockbell Automail, though it now does much more than that, given the Pantheon and all of her followers. Her services are open for those with prosthetic limbs, and in time she's been able to do more than her standard automail. Making them transform into other stuff is not in her foray, however.
• Given her parents' profession when they were alive, not to mention having to fix Edward's automail arm and leg plenty of times, Winry also has a remarkable wealth of surgical knowledge. As such, she also sometimes helps out in the House of Health and Diseases, especially for the patients who need artificial limbs to replace their missing ones. She wished she was ascended earlier to help with Sora's (and Roxas's) lost leg.
• She also has a pretty mean throwing arm, able to pitch heavy wrenches long distances with deadly accuracy, as Ed and Al can attest to.
• While not of much importance, she's also learned how to bake (apple) pies.
• Made friends with Diancie, Kyoko Kirigiri, and Cammy White through shared voice bases.
  • Kirito always feels sad and acts evasive around Winry since she sounds like his mother, whom he doesn't interact much with.
• When she first met the alchemist killer Scar face to face, she at the same time learned the horrible truth that he had killed her parents after they fixed him up in a moment of madness. In short order, she had the chance to kill him, which he did not begrudge her for, but Edward was able to stop her in time. When they next met, she patched up an injured Scar instead of taking the chance for revenge, because that's what her parents would've done, remarking however that she still can't forgive such a "monster". Naturally, she's uncomfortable around the Ishvalan, even though he too is genuinely helping out over at Health and Diseases.
  • As for the lion with the same name, both can agree that he is the absolute worst.
• After successfully "setting up shop", Winry went to visit every engineer in the Pantheon, starting with her sub-house neighbors Agatha and Dell, expressing amazement at the Spark's inventions, and feeling concerned for the Texan, and then her House neighbors Torbjörn and Tony before leaving the House of Technology to visit the others. She started with the former holder Gadget Hackwrench, then visited Isaac Clarke, Tali, Charlotte Yeager, Bulma (and had the courtesy of meeting both present and future Trunks as well as Vegeta), Betty, Tinker Bell (after an anonymous tip, and to everyone's surprise, since not everybody knows of her gadgeteering skills), Abby Sciuto, Ruby, Scootaloo (and offered to tutor the pegasus filly), Asami (and feels a little weird hearing about Korra being her girlfriend), and Pearl. She did avoid Penelope Mouse and Dr. Gero after her encounters with them turned disastrous.
• Shortly after this, she was taken to a party by Ed, Al, and their father Hohenheim that Asami was hosting to celebrate Korra's change of seat. She and Asami got a chance to chat again, as did the brothers and Korra; cue the big "you know each other" moment and a brief chat between the five of them. Winry admitted her weirdness about the girl-girl relationships at the party and ended up in a good conversation with Korra, coming to an understanding. Also during this party, Kirie Sakurame noticed that Korra wasn't the only one with reason to celebrate, as her friend Touta Konoe now had his seat to himself as well, plus Winry as well as Korra's mentor Tenzin had ascended. Al promptly used his alchemy to add them all to the commemoration banner. She and Kirie made fast friends after that. After the party, she was accompanied back to her temple by Hohenheim.
• When Ed told her that Maes Hughes had made it to the Pantheon with Gracia and Elicia as his heralds, Winry chucked her wrench at him thinking it was a joke, then cried tears of joy when she realized he was serious. She then promptly pored over her kitchen stove in order to make her best apple pie, taking both Ed and Al with her to the Hughes temple when she was finished so that Maes could finally get a chance to try it with his family. While Maes and Elicia observed that it was different from Gracia's recipe, they still found it delicious. She tearfully thanked and hugged the Brigadier General.

Lisbeth Salander

Lisbeth Salander, Goddess of Surprisingly Female Hackers (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played With Fire, The Girl who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, The Girl in the Spider's Web, The Wasp, Irene Nesser)

• Demigoddess
• Symbol: Her signature dragon tattoo
• Theme Song: Karen O's cover of "Immigrant Song", "Would Anybody Die for Me?"
• Alignment: Chaotic Neutral with good tendencies
• Portfolio: A-Cup Angst, Anti-Hero, Depraved Bisexual, Broken Bird, Dark and Troubled Past, Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette, Fragile Speedster, Goth, Hates Being Touched, Claims is not Pretty, No Social Skills, Jerk with a Heart of Gold, Really Gets Around, Rebellious Spirit
• Domains: Chaos, Technology
• Allies: Is not one to stick around with allies for long, but has received help from the following: Pippi Longstocking, Red Sonja, Radical Ed, Neo, Nico Minoru, Amadeus Cho, Jade, Lois Lane, Sam Vimes, James Bond, Charlie Harper, Bayonetta, Isabela of Rivan, Trinity, Trent Reznor
  • Partner: Renamon
• Enemies: All evil gods in the House of Commerce, Iron Man
• Rivals: Robocop
• Opposes: all women and child abusers, especially Gregor Clegane and Alex Delarge
• Unknown Rival: Brock
• Conflicting Opinion: Charlotte LaBouff
• Her presence was first felt when the House of Commerce shut down briefly. It was then that Mr. Burns found out that he lost millions of dollars from his online account. Sources pointed to the newest entry to the Pantheon: a small Goth girl. All corrupt businesses were at high alert after her stunt.
  • After that stunt, the House has hired anti-hacking unites gifted from Robocop to prevent another occurrence. Lisbeth admits the Superhuman Cop has his heart in the right place, but she would rather have it that he gets out of her way.
  • If there's one god in the House of Commerce she's avoided hacking, it's Charlotte, deciding she's probably the only decent one in the lot. It helps that the Spoiled Sweet god regards her as a lost soul who had a hard life.
• One of her first visitors came to her shock: a 9-year-old girl with pigtails claimed a resemblance with her. Pippi Longstocking greeted her with a bone-crushing hug before offering her gifts. She was put-off with her boisterous manner at first, but realized it could theoretically be similar to her younger self. Even though the two don't talk that often, Lisbeth appreciated Pippi's enthusiasm whenever she needs help with some heavy lifting in tight situations.
• Her meetup with fellow hacker Ed was met with similar annoyance of her bubbly behavior at first. Eventually the Playful Hacker even managed to make Lisbeth smile, a rare feat in itself. The two often work together to use their hacking skills to take down criminals.
• While she prefers to work alone, she does have people to turn to whenever she wants someone behind bars. To this end, she prefers to hand over info to the reporter gods in the Pantheon. The three are more than happy to expose the actions of villains.
• As for policemen, she often turns her work to Sam Vimes. Lisbeth believes she can trust her to receive her info without arresting her. Turns out to be true; Vimes would rather allow her to give him info on criminals to arrest than spending time finding little girls that aren't nearly as much trouble.
• Just before she ascended, she found a fellow hacker on the street. Pitying her, she decided to take her up as her high priest. Turns out that woman was Neo's love interest Trinity. The Chosen One has been highly thankful to the hacker ever since. Eventually, she was later given her own temple.
• Woe to anyone, god or mortal, who has raped or attempted to rape women. She may not look like much, but Lisbeth has a way to make their lives a living hell. Gregor Clegane learned the hard way what kind of dirt a hacker can dig up to embarrass you. The God of Brutal War Procedures has long since sworn revenge.
  • Those plans came to a halt when Lisbeth fell into the protection of Red Sonja. The two hope to form a brigade to help victims of sexual assault. Gregor is now forced to bid his time when Lisbeth is alone.
  • Has made it her mission to bring down Alex Delarge and his drooges once and for all.While not as high profiled as the others, she wants justice for all the women he raped.
• Very few people realized just how promiscuous the little girl can be. She already has a sizable list of lovers in a short period of time, often frequenting in the brothels of the Pantheon. Moxxi has been one of her most frequent one-night-stands.
  • Bayonetta has taken a liking to the girl, respecting her spunk and drive against gods far more powerful than her.
  • Brock has been completely smitten by the gothic girl. Unfortunately, all attempts to talk her her have been thwarted by Misty pulling him away. Lisbeth just can't seem to find him for that reason.
  • Even though she is older than she looks, Charlie Harper refused any attempts to court with her. Mostly, it was out of respect of the rough life she's had.
• Given James Bond looks like Lisbeth's ally Mikael Blomkvist, she gave him a courtesy lay and they have worked together on occasion.
• Felt some familiarity when meeting Sherlock Holmes, who has since asked her help when he needs tech work.
• The Pirate Queen has taken a liking to the girl, both as a rebel to society and a respectful duelist in bed. Isabela has agreed to make hits on certain ships Lisbeth knows belongs to despicable men.
• Fellow Goth girl Nico has welcomed her ascension, as her actions may as make her an honorary Runaway. In fact, rumors have been circulating that she has been helping her evade attempts of finding the group.
  • Speaking of rogues, Amadeus Cho has forged an alliance with her. He brings her dirt on potentially evil men to hack while she helps mask his presence. This has not gone unnoticed by members of S.H.I.E.L.D, who hope to interrogate her on his whereabouts.
• Amused that one of the composers of her first American movie was ascended, Lisbeth paid Trent Reznor a visit, and he in return gifted her with all Nine Inch Nails songs to hear during her job.

• An elite unit in the German Luftwaffe during World War II in Europe, the Nemesis Squadron, or Nemesis for short, was led by the enigmatic and mysterious Oberst Krieger. When founded at the onset of the European War, the unit was the Luftwaffe's best fighter group, composed of Germany's top Ace Pilots. Unlike most other Luftwaffe units, whose planes were painted in dark grays, dark greens, and yellows, the aircraft fielded by Nemesis wore a unique paintjob of black with yellow lightning bolts, complemented by their unit logo, a red circle with a black triangle in it. Thanks to these, the unit soon became The Dreaded amongst most Allied airmen during the early way years. Only the Allies' Good Counterpart equivalent, the equally elite Battlehawks, an Eagle Squadron composed of pilots from several occupied European nations and even the United States, were able to stand their ground against them.
• As the war dragged on and escalated into a World War with Japan's entry, the unit itself, as well as their goals and actions, soon expanded as well, with their officers, scientists, and soldiers helping supply German aircraft and weapons technology to the Empire of Japan (presumably in exchange for Japan's own technological advancements), their forces parttaking in the kidnapping and captivity of various European scientists including one Niels Bohr, and most of all, helping the Third Reich develop and mass produce revolutionary new aircraft and weapons designs, many of which were decades ahead of their time. Unfortunately for Nemesis, these increased actions also drew the unwanted attention of the Allies, in particular their most recurring foe, the Battlehawks.
• Aside from fielding conventional German fighter aircraft like the Messerschmitt Bf 109 and Focke Wulf Fw 190, Nemesis also fielded various advanced aircraft designs as the tide of war grew against Germany's favor. Most notable amongst these is the Messerschmitt Me 262, the first operational Axis jet fighter. Unlike most other air groups who fielded exclusively bombers or fighters, Nemesis fielded a mix of fighters and bombers as the war dragged on. Interestingly, all of these bombers were Super Prototype vehicles, specifically the Junkers Ju 390, a six-engined heavy bomber capable of bombing targets throughout Europe and even the East Coast of the United States. By 1944, their research and development also extended to rocket technology, in the form of the Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet rocket fighter, and helping further develop the V1 Flying Bomb and V2 Rocket, with the Reich fielding these weapons in sufficient quantity several months ahead of their real-world counterparts.
• Despite this series of increasingly revolutionary technology and weaponry, including a fully-functioning nuclear bomb by mid-1944, all of Nemesis' research and development were ultimately for naught, thanks to the actions of the SOE and the Battlehawks. Following the Normandy landings on D-Day, which saw Nemesis lose all of their V2 rocket bases in near Cherbourg as well as the losses of a Ju 390 carrying the aforementioned nuclear device, several Mistel drone aircraft, and the Daimler Benz Project C aircraft, the squadron soldiered on, with Krieger and his men apparently continuing to resist the Allies and the Battlehawks until the end of the European War. The Battlehawks themselves acknowledge that they haven't seen the last of Krieger and his men, and with the war now hopeless for the Nazis, their leaders would now pour even more resources into these wonderweapons in a desperate attempt to drive the Allies back.
• Despite their series of defeats against the Battlehawks and their failure to stop the Allied invasion of Normandy, Nemesis had nonetheless earned the interest of various Nazis within the Pantheon, including but not limited to Johann Schmidt, Wilhelm "Deathshead" Strasse, Rudolf von Sturmgeist, and General Heinz Böhm. All men had been involved in the development of German wonderweapons in their respective universes, and all of them agreed that having Krieger and the men of Nemesis in the Pantheon would boost their existing air forces and wonderweapons projects significantly. And so, it was decided to ascend Nemesis as a whole into the Pantheon, as the Unholy Squadron of Nazi Secret Weapons Projects.
• Upon Krieger and his men setting foot in the Pantheon, they are greeted by none other than the aforementioned Nazi officers, who promise the Luftwaffe Colonel unlimited funds and resources to recreate the Secret Weapons projects that they had used in their own universe. Their Temples in the Pantheon would be the Peenemunde, Harz Mountain, and Ju 390 factory Facilities that were originally destroyed by the Battlehawks in their universe, all now fully restored, fully functioning, and recreated in pristine condition within the Pantheon. In exchange, they would also vow loyalty to Schmidt and HYDRA, and have their existing organization expanded with members from the aforementioned organizaton and "Deathshead" Strasse's own men. With this came an influx of even more advanced technology from their respective Alternate Timelines, which would be used to upgrade the squadron's existing aircraft and weapons as well as provide them with completely new designs such as the Valkyrie transatlantic bomber and the Ms 300 "Razor" missile being added to their arsenal.
  • They would also be tasked with continuing the missions that they had done back in their own universe, one of which included he exchanging weapons and technology with their Imperial Japanese allies, who like in Krieger's universe are still in need of a technological edge against the American Marines and Navy. Through Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto and Commander Masataka Shima of the Imperial Japanese Navy, Nemesis, using both U-boats and armed transport ships, would supply their allies with jet engines, as well as surface-to-air, air-to-air, and cruise missiles, while receiving from the Japanese technology relating to naval warfare and shipbuilding, such as Oxygen torpedoes, carrier-based aircraft designs, and several blueprints of existing Japanese warship designs for reverse engineering.
  • There was also the matter of helping the ascended Nazis deal with some of their more powerful enemies, with Izetta in particular proving to be a huge threat following the defeat and repulse of Nazi Forces in the Principality of Eylstadt. Having received reports of the capabilities of Eylstadt's White Witch, particularly when it came to outspeeding most contemporary piston-engined German fighters, Krieger, in addition to upgrading his existing stocks of Me 262 and He P.1078 jet fighters courtesy of "Deathshead's" advanced tech, asks both the aforementioned Nazi General and Rudolf von Sturmgeist for permission to get a hold of their most advanced fighter design, the Horten Ho. IX, which both officers agree to give to the squadron.
• Among the Nazis' allies who cooperate the most with Nemesis, the most notable would be Sophie and Lt. Col. Arnold Berkman, who were themselves also involved in the creation of weapons similar to the one that Nemesis helped develop. Krieger was particularly impressed by Hexenium, or crystallized and weaponized Magical Energy, noting that it was much easier to produce nuclear weapons with this substance, than with the Heavy Water that his unit had originally used. It would be with this crystallized Magical Energy that would ultimately serve as both a power source and warhead component for their arsenal of V1 Flying Bombs and V2 Rockets, with alternative warheads containing Nova-6 used as well.
  • For that matter, the men of Nemesis also came to respect Sophie herself, who by now was known in the Pantheon as "HYDRA's New Champion". Unlike her Germanian allies, Sophie comes to respect the pilots of Nemesis in return, thanks in part to their aircrafts' ability to keep up with her easily in battle, their competence against opponents being much better than that of any Germanian pilot prior, as well as all of their pilots knowing not to interrupt her fighting mid-battle.
  • Berkman himself was admittedly paranoid of the Oberst at first, having had a bad experience prior with a Germanian Air Force officer named Basler, who had shot out one of his eyes after finding out he had reluctantly betrayed the Germanian Empire. However, upon finding out that Krieger was nothing like the Germanian Air Force officer who had shot him, the Lt. Colonel softens up, and offers his talents and skills to Krieger, even giving the Oberst the vital intel he needs to help take down Izetta.
• Milleneum as a whole take great interest in their new fellow Nazis, no thanks to Nemesis' large Historical Rap Sheet. Having seen their potential to spread further conflict around the Pantheon (having given the Japanese the ability to fight more evenly against the Americans, for one), they provide the squadron even more funding and assistance, even helping Krieger and his men with regards to bolstering and upgrading their existing stock of V1 Flying Bombs and V2 Rockets by "donating" some of their own to them. On the other end of the spectrum, Nemesis themselves have been impressed by the technology developed by Schwarz Sonne, with theirs being decades ahead of their own already-advanced weaponry. Krieger has made it a point to contact them and ask for access to whatever advanced weaponry they can get their hands on.
• Immediately, Nemesis makes a noticeable impact on the Axis war effort within the Pantheon, with the number of Hexenium-based wonderweapons and conventionally-powered jet fighters increasing twofold (to the point that any weapons or facilities blown up by Allied air and commando raids are replaced within days rather than weeks or months). In addition, the Japanese are now finally able to field their own jet-powered aircraft (either based on existing Nazi German designs or powered by German jet engines licensed-built by Japanese companies) and use them to launch counterattacks against US ships and island bases. Allied leaders soon realize that, if left unchecked, the Nazis and HYDRA, with Nemesis' now-unlimited resources and budget, would not only threaten all Allied and Soviet theaters of war, but also areas of the Pantheon normally uninvolved in the now Forever War between them and the Axis Powers, potentially causing thousands if not millions of casualties with their new planes, city-busting weapons, and toxic gas.
• To counter Nemesis' future operations in the Pantheon, several deities, both from Europe and the Pacific, decide to make arrangements to eventually ascend the squadron's Arch-Enemy, the Battlehawks, to counter their contributions to the Axis war effort. For the time being, several Allied units and affiliated deities would prioritize in targeting Nemesis facilities and personnel themselves for the time being. Behind German lines, Allied operatives such as Lt. Mike Powell and Lt. Karl Fairburne, as well as their affiliate B.J. Blaskowicz, would operate behind German lines and either assassinate key Nemesis scientists and officers, capture blueprints and prototypes of various weaponry being developed, and finally sabotage existing stocks and production lines of aircraft and missiles. In the Pacific, pilots such as Lt. Cdr. Dick Best would help sink Nemesis freighters and submarines docked in Japanese-held ports and islands, as well as target Japanese bases and factories housing the advanced weaponry already planned for frontline deployment. Over the skies of Eylstadt, Izetta, despite being outnumbered and outgunned by Sophie and her new "friends", manages to prevent the deployment of Hexenium-powered missiles by utterly trashing the launch sites and bases where they're housed in.
• Interestingly, they're not a creation of Steven Spielberg this time around, but rather, indirectly, by George Lucas, specifically by a video game company he had helped create. Despite this, the story where Nemesis came from still bore similar elements to the stories of Lt. Powell, Cpl. Travers, Cpt. Miller, and several of the other deities whose stories originated from Spielberg's ideas, thanks in part to Nemesis' story originally having been a planned installment for the Medal of Honor series.
• Thanks to their deployment of the Junkers Ju 390 heavy bomber, Nemesis has become the subject of interest for the Bedtime Stories Crew, who previously covered the aircraft in one of their episodes. Specifically, this episode discussed the possibility that the Nazis had not only managed to fly one such aircraft all the way to the East Coast of the United States, but also carried a prototype nuclear weapon that could possibly have obliterated New York City had the flight been successful. Seeing Nemesis not only mass produce the bomber but also similar nuclear bombs as the topic of the episode pretty much confirmed that what they covered was very much real. They end up making a follow-up episode to this one, covering the establishing of Nemesis, a brief biography on its leader Krieger, and their actions both before and after their ascension. Unlike before, however, Richard While, the narrator, ends the episode saying that the worst case scenario was very much real and possible in the Pantheon, creating even more Nightmare Fuel.

"...But they knew that the Third Reich would now grow more desperate, pouring resources into its secret weapons program like never before..."
