So I've been seeing people make predictions about what god each Pantheon's character is gonna be a champion of, and while I don't have idea's for everyone! I do have ideas, so!
I am gonna put all of those lovely ideas under a read more for your convenience and if anyone wants to talk to me about my thoughts I will know that at the very least you skimmed it! :3
enjoy if you want it gets pretty long actually i had way more thoughts than i thought i did when i started writing this
I do think it would be really fun for Abolish to be a champion of Iris, if only because I've seen it said that the main color for his character isn't black, and because well his cobblemon skin is already pink and i think it would be really fun if he got the rest of the rainbow in one go even if only in vibes and magic shenanigans. But
!!! For those wondering about what champion I imagine Scott to be because I've drawn a concept idea of what I think he could do, uh I don't have one but I did a get reply thinking Aeolus and a tag-reblog thinking Persephone. So those could be fun!!! He could be really funny and go for one of the Morai or the Muses, but I did see something somewhere saying that he had said once something about wanting to play a character with water or storm powers so like idk Poesidon or Amphitrite could be fun? or maybe Triton? idk one of the water deitys maybe?
oh! Sausage could go for one of the muses or the Morai cause of how story-centric his character work is, that could be fun, or he could go for a chthonic god? mmm but he did recently do necromancer with Bannerfall so he probably won't want to do something adjacent to that so quickly, and he's doing the weather themed amnesiac in the flight so,,, mhn. Sausage could go many many ways cause he's such a good storyteller, so its really hard to place what vibes he'd wanna go with so for now I'm sticking with either the Morai or the Muses but minor back up of maybe Hephaestus cause he could go Blacksmith lives in a volcano route I don't think he's ever done anything quite like that before and it would probably be a fun challenge for him to work with
I have more thoughts than I thought wow I'm so glad I put this under a readmore
Anyway, Cleo! Cleo Cleo Cleo, they are a very smart person, like they did the magic system with all the math and geometry you'd probably have to do by hand with a calculator in witchcraft kinda smart, so Athena is an obvious choice, goddess of wisdom after all, so Obvious Pick is Obvious. But! But but but! In my mind Cleo is far more of a crafter, a builder, a chaotic being of inspiration striking at random, so what if what if what if, Cleo had Hephaestus, bold thoughts I know but I really do think it fits and blacksmithing and metalwork and all that jazz sounds like something I think that she would enjoy working with even no especially if it allows her to play with lava. and Hey, why are there Two Olympians on this list if Apo said that it wasn't just the Olympians everyone was a champion of?! Sight the key-word there, Just. Some of them, are going to be Champions of the Olympians, but not All.
(It'd also be really fun if they had an in with the Morai because weaver of fates Cleo would be fucking awesome,,, it is become abundantly clear that I really want someone to have some connection to the fates but I don't know why the fates would need a champion to fight in a competition for them or why they would go, and also im just now clicking in that if the fates are in anyway involved with pansmp's lore its probably gonna be as the damn narrators of the whole thing-)
So Cleo gets to be the first hit with the I dont know enough about Greek mythology and the gods to pin them down with something other than what's well known and thats on me I should know better
Owen Owen Owen our He/She King, It would be really really funny if everyone thought you were gonna do Zeus or Aphrodite and then you went with Dionysus or Ariadne instead it would be so funny, but I doubt you went for any of those guys because Asclepius bracelet at Twitchcon Bannerfall panel is calling to me it would be so fun if you played the villain against the doctor and then the next youtube smp you played the doctor that would be so fun and so iconic of you actually-
(Owen could also go for being a champion of Eros or Psyche which could be really cute actually and maybe Luanne or another character somehow representing them could show up and Pan!Owen could get a happy ending unlike a certain someone who died on us. Maybe Pretty Please.)
Legundo, Legs, is such a lively and wholehearted person that any kind of character he could think of, I'm certain would vibe fantastically, like Doctor from Vampires was so fun, Parcel Elf from Bannerfall was so interesting and now Flight Legs being Like That there's just, there's so many ways he could go. That being said I do think that Legs could be like,,, a champion of one of a pair? like of either Apollo or Artemis, of Selene or Helios, of Castor or Pollux. I don't know why I think that he would go for a character that would feel inherently paired, but it would be really fun if he did that and then didn't give them the pair y'know? it would be fun would be cool would be mean :3 Apokuna!!! I'm thinking like,,, Thanatos, Melinoe, maybe one of the Furies? Ooo! or maybe Charon! I don't know why I'm thinking all Chthonic for her, Hermes could be fun-psychopomp also chthonic fuck-uhhh- Apo and Cherri did the sun-moon thing in Bannerfall they probably wouldn't do that again so soon after so not any of those gods uhm Apo could do Eros or Psyche as well, or maybe ,,,,,,,,,, I guess she could do Ariadne and have a whole thing about strings and labyrinths and mazes with no exits and no prize
That would be fun :3
Ooo! Or she could do Dionysus! and play with causing madness in others!! and also wine but ignoring that Madness!!!
oh wow I just attributed the pow-creations with eros and psyche,,, that probably doesn't mean anything in the wider universe
(I better not get hit with any dodgeballs-)
Anyway! Pearl! I heard some talk about Pearl planning to be the antagonist of pansmp, which i have not and currently cannot verify as i am actively fighting sleep to write this (i fucked up my sleep schedule don't worry about it I'm working on it-) so hmmm, Pearl could have Hermes, Psychopomp, guide you into the hands of death, deliver messages travel a lot thievery the whole shebang so that could be fun, Hypnos could fun as well, inflict slowness and blindness on your enemies by simply knocking them out! I think Pearl would have a lot of fun twisting a relatively well known god on their head to play the bad guy though so my top pick for her is Hermes, cause I don't think she'd be completely gunning for the moon theme despite her naming conventions I mean she totally might do that but I don't think it'd be as fun cause there aren't really a lot of things to base off of power wise if she goes with Artemis or Selene, those two would rely a lot more heavily on her skills and that would put her at a disadvantage which,,, underdog villain could be fun i guess but i don't know if she'd want to play that way
Moving on, I have no ideas for Martyn, Ren or Drift (sorry women i have failed you) but I do have an idea for Shubble and Pyro
Pyro I'm first thinking could be Hestia, could be Apollo, could be Hephaestus, but he's doing Dagmeare on the flight right now and he has fire powers so unless Pyro is absolutely god tier in playing entirely different characters with the same powerset and not screwing with his own muscle memory for that I would be surprised if he went for a fire type skillset. However! It would be, really, Really funny, if he was a champion of Khione. And had Ice Powers. As a Treat.
That is my only thought process for Pyro.
Shelby is currently doing air powers and a bug themed character for her flight character so I actually think it would be very fun if she like stole drifts thing and made it darker and had a whole mushrooms-fungi vibe as a champion of Persephone or Demeter, that would be so fun! Actually i might try and draw that-
anyway! that is all my thoughts, on who might be doing what and my very, very spirally predictions, if you made this far I thank you deeply and if you misclicked the readmore and had to deal with my word jumble of a vibe check of people ive never met and dont know personally,,,, sorry bout that
