'''Palutena''' (パルテナ ''Parutena'') is the goddess of light, rightful ruler of [[Skyworld]], and the patron deity of [[Pit]] and the [[Centurion|Centurions]]. She is kindhearted and benevolent, as opposed to the cruel and malevolent [[Medusa]]. Despite being a divine goddess, Palutena also seems to be somewhat of a damsel-in-distress, as she was imprisoned and held captive by Medusa and needed to be rescued, but recently she has been given a much more active role as a major supporting character and Pit's greatest ally.

Palutena is generally a very kind and wise character. She is shown to care much about the human race and will go to great lengths keep them safe from harm. She was willing to banish her own co-ruler, Medusa, in order to stop the goddess of darkness from pursuing the mortals. Although she may be the guardian of the humans, it is important to note that Palutena does not view them as flawless beings, and views them as quite selfish and destructive; however, she also believes the deities are no better than humans when it comes to egoistic desires (or in some cases she believes gods can be far worse). Ironically, this might be why she firmly believes humans are the closest to the gods and sees them worth protecting.

Ironically, this might be why she firmly believes humans are the closest to the gods and sees them worth protecting.  


One very notable trait of the goddess of light is her outstanding wisdom, as she is one of the most knowledgable within the pantheon. Palutena uses her vast proficiency to let Pit know enemies' weak points, and give other useful information and tips to him. She is also quite sharp and not easily fooled. The goddess is typically the first to notice any subtle changes that occur, including contradictions and inconsistencies in anyone's statements or situations. Other characters have commented on her as being very smart or a "know-it-all".

The goddess is typically the first to notice any subtle changes that occur, including contradictions and inconsistencies in anyone's statements or situations. Other characters have commented on her as being very smart or a "know-it-all". Palutena is also noticeably more merciful compared to the other gods, as she would try to peacefully reason with her enemies first than use outright violence. When [[Viridi]] started to attack humanity, Palutena attempted to persuade her out of it. She also tried to convince [[Arlon]] to joining her side to work together against the [[Underworld Army]].


Palutena has a very close relationship with Pit and shares a very strong bond with him, with which he returns with undying loyalty. Despite her mature appearance, she has been shown to have a very playful and mischievous side. Palutena often teases Pit, and even purposely puts him into dangerous situations in order to complete missions. She has a habit of saying certain phrases incorrectly, such as in one of the tutorial videos for ''Uprising'' she erroneously calls ''[[smashwiki:Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' as "Super Bash Sisters". The goddess also has a knack for using large, complex vocabulary that confuses Pit. Similar to her angel, she appears to have a large appetite as she talks about how delicious octopus is during the [[Space Kraken]] fight, and omelettes later in [[Chapter 10]] when mentioning [[Phoenix]] eggs. Despite her young looks, she is sensitive when it comes to the topic regarding her age and strongly dislikes being called “ma’am”.
