Ataba

Ataba is the mother of the original two gods, Guacando and Yokaho. Her domains used to be focused on the movement of the tides, the power of the seas, and the creation of sea-creatures to fill the vast oceans. Ever since the death of Guacando, however, she has been the patron to those who have faced grief in some form or another, especially the death of a loved one. She has also gained significant following for those looking for righteous vengeance when wronged.

Her temples tend to be constructed on structures that sit over the ocean and her clergy varied in race. As the first goddess, she commands much respect despite the fact that she was the one who instigated The Civil War now plaguing the archipelago. She was once known to be a good-natured goddess, but she has grown much more vindictive ever since the death of her child, protecting the weak and punishing those who she feels have wronged her chosen mortals. Even her Behiques (priests) have noted the change in her demeanor and fear that if it changed much further, she would no longer be the shining pillar of morality that she was once known to be. Some go even further and say that she has already fallen, pushing a war onto mortals that they have no business to be fighting, as the war should have remained in the heavens.
