Go To

Basic Trope: A deity of love.

  • Straight: Alicia is a (supernaturally or symbolically) divine manifestation of Love: Complete with lovely personality and sexy body.
  • Exaggerated: Alicia is a divine Mary Sue Classic who loves everyone and is loved in turn by everyone.
  • Downplayed: Alicia has been known to be a tsundere and thus is the patron of both harmonic love and belligerent sexual tension.
  • Justified:
    • For the supernatural version, a fantasy setting with at least one pantheon.
    • For the symbolic version, seen through the eyes of a character who is deeply in love with her.
  • Inverted: A goddess of hate, revulsion or indifference.
  • Subverted:
    • A character looks the part but is truly a mortal cosplayer with her own love problems.
    • Alicia is not really associated with love, "love" is simply a method for her true manifestation — giving birth.
  • Double Subverted:
    • The mortal cosplayer is the real deal cosplaying a mortal cosplaying her.
    • Following from 'giving birth' is the title of Goddess of maternal love.
  • Parodied: A beautiful woman wearing a toga and carrying archery equipment and has an aura of love and goodness....is a mundane archer with strange fasion sense.
  • Zig Zagged: The god is a confusing mess of Odd Job God traits, some of which fit the Love God persona.
  • Averted: She's cute & nice and likes arranging blind dates for others, but she's still a mundane mortal.
  • Enforced: "This show needs more fanservice. Have Aphrodite show up; her name is excuse enough in itself."
  • Lampshaded: "Cupid, goddess of love, and number Matchmaker at your service!"
  • Invoked: The first god explicitly gives her the role as a love goddess.
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied: The person refuses to be (or be seen as) a goddess of love.
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
  • Deconstructed: Spending so much time around happy relationships makes her lonely but she has no time to find someone for herself.
  • Reconstructed: All love goddesses work in pairs so neither one is lonely.
