African Mythology
(Add more stuff)

Since Africa is a vast continent with different cultures and languages. It's no surprise that some of the ancient mythology, its gods, and supernatural creatures are found in various modern works, like video games, books, and tv shows.

Gods
Like with any mythologies, African mythology, has multiple gods that are in one huge heavenly family. Though many tribes and groups refer to the top god as Amma or Olorun, while in Eastern Africans prefer Mulungu.


 * Ala - Mother Goddess, ruler of the underworld, and fertility.
 * Amma - Head honcho god.
 * Cagn - The Creator God
 * Eshu - The Hermas expy/trickster and messenger.
 * Katonda - Also a creator god/father of the gods/king and supreme judge of the universe.
 * Kibuka - The war god.
 * Leza - Creator and sky god.
 * Mujaji - The rain goddess
 * Nyame - A creator god, who is associated with both the sun and moon.
 * Ogun - God of war and iron
 * Olorun - Sky god and supreme deity

Demi-Gods
The demi-gods are more diverse and they have many functions. There's thousands of them, but they varied from culture to culture.


 * Shango - storm god, who controls thunder and lightning.

Trope Poster Museum
We here in All The Tropes love to categorize things, like tropes, wikis, cartoons, tv shows, movies, and such, one day we were thinking: Suppose there's a museum of tropes, that has displays of those greats that represent tropes. Don't worry, they displays won't become alive, as far as we know...It's just for fun.

Please do not confuse with Religion Tropes.

-- Old Version --

We in All The Tropes love to categorize things. Tropes, tv shows, books, and everything that we can get our hands on. So, one day we got to thinking: What would things be like if the world were run entirely on tropes and what they could be? Who would be the Gods and Goddesses? So, we pooled our resources and come up with as much ideas as possible. No condolences, human sacrifices, and payment is required yet...It's just for fun.

Trope Poster Template
Before Submitting a God/Goddess, Read The Rules: These rules are made so we don’t fall like Tv Tropes, their Trope Pantheon is more convoluted and messed up than Call of Duty. - How you ask? You need a spreadsheet to keep track of everything, we want to keep this mainly as a trope museum, having a character that embodies the trope.

1) Use proper grammar at all times. If your English is poor or not your first language, use the sandbox to get it proofread before posting or do not post.

2) If you have any bias for or against a character, keep it out of your writing.

3) Crossovers should make sense, as in having some modicum of logic.

4) Do not do lazy things, like voice actor connections between characters, to write crossovers. If you want to make crossover jokes, there are better ways of doing so.

5) Similar to rule four, please refrain from doing recycled memes. (Example: If making Mario god of mustaches, a meme reference to SM 64 DS where a battle for the best one was a PLOT POINT would be fine, just don't wear out a ton of memes in the process, try to write SOMETHING clever and original of your own).

5) Do not put characters in positions, just because they are in fashion now. Do it because the character(s) best embody a trope.

6) Keep everything consistent.

7) Refrain from trying to write epic fanfiction sagas in All The Tropes, this is a wiki. It’s encouraged that one takes that spark of creativity to fanfiction.net, deviantart, Archive of Our Own, and other writing sites like it to make fanfiction about the ATT's Trope Pantheon, not here.

8) If you’re writing just because a character turns you on, don't.

9) If you’re writing about real people for the Trope Pantheon, use only Historical Domain Characters, especially if they’re larger than life. Don’t use currently living people, especially politicians, we don't want problems.

10) Reminder: Careful if you're bringing over a god/goddess from Tv Tropes, please do not copy word for word, otherwise it's copyright infringement. Say it in your own words. - Unless you also post on Tv Tropes and you're bringing over your own edits. In the latter case, follow the obvious regardless.

-- New Deity Template --

God X, God/dess of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames/Fan Nicknames)
 * An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
 * Rank: This can range from god, demigod, lesser god, and whatever status the Greek Fates has.
 * Symbol: An image, icon, or item that's used to represent the deity.
 * Alignment: Good, evil, anti-heroic, and so forth. If one cannot do that, one can use the Dungeons & Dragons character alignment, the ATT Pantheon is kinda base on D&D after all.
 * Portfolio: The Trope/tropes associated with the character
 * Domains: Things this character has influence over.
 * Allies: Gods that are the said god's Pantheon friends/allies
 * Rivals: Gods that are the said god's Pantheon rivals (Or worst, foes).
 * Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon have relationships with each other (examples including Enemy Mine, Friendly Enemy, etc.)
 * Now add random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights, etc.

Cheagal Fonts
Whether a character is a precocious child, team pet, or an alien ends up writing on behalf of the adult, legal guardian or human adult. Doing this gives results that is heavily implied that the youngster is either a genius and wise beyond his years, has better handwriting, or the adult in question’s writing is similar to how a child writes or has average/ horrible handwriting. This can be played for humor or a very nice save on the child’s part, in a more serious story, like thrillers, horror stories, and action-adventures.

The trope namer came from Tales of the Abyss, the cheagal in question, Mieu, tries to fill in for Luke with writing his daily journal, the other characters inquire about Luke’s penmanship, implying that Fabrve’s writing is questionable or Mieu knows how to write human.

Compare and contrast ‘Signature Style,’ ‘Creator Thumbprint’, and Most Writers Are Adults.

Examples

Anime/Manga
In a Naruto filler, it turns out that the titular character completed the latest Make Out Paradise novel, which made the shojun think that the rival leader send him a peace gift. This implied that Jirarya has the writing skills of a pre-teen or that Naruto knows how to write (Since the titular hero also is the editor of Make Out Paradise series).

Video Games
In Tales of the Abyss, when Mieu notices that Luke was skipping days of writing in his journal. The young cheagal took matters in his own paws, resulting in some hilarious reactions from Luke’s friends.
