God-Emperor/Playing With

Basic Trope: A sovereign viewed as a Physical God. (Usually with appropriate attitude on the sovereign's part.)
 * Straight: Emperor Evulz is worshipped by his subjects, who believe that he is a member of the pantheon.
 * Exaggerated: Emperor Evulz is worshipped by his subjects ala Crystal Dragon Jesus, who believe that He created the universe. Complete with Inquisition.
 * Justified: Emperor Evulz does have god-like powers (and matching attitude).
 * Inverted: A god(dess) is invited to the land and then installed as an emperor by the people.
 * Subverted: It's just lip-service; most people don't actually believe that Evulz is a god, and snickers about his eccentricities behind him.
 * Double Subverted: However, when Evulz start throwing god-like powers like a mad god, they begin to kneel and worship him.
 * Parodied: Haruhi A megalomaniacal student council president acts as though she's a Little Miss Almighty.
 * Deconstructed: Evulz goes completely crazy when he figure out that he can't live up the "God" part of his title, and making up for it with excessive display of "Emperor" power.
 * Reconstructed: Somehow, this only make people revere him even more.
 * Zig Zagged: One day Evulz talk as though he's an immaculate deity, the other day he's OK with listening to people's (carefully-presented) advices.
 * Averted: In a universe brimming with Physical God and Evil Overlord, no one from either side try to claim each other's title.
 * Enforced: "We need Big Bad Evil Overlord whose ego is bigger than big!"
 * Lampshaded: "One day he will try to do in the King of Cosmos the way he done in Emperor Horrificus."
 * Invoked: The Corrupt Church offered him the title of God-Emperor so they will gain significant power in Evulz' regime...
 * Exploited: ...and they actually supported Evulz in overthrowing the previous ruler.
 * Defied: The constitution states that Emperor is an entirely secular title.
 * Discussed: ???
