Chrysanthus
One of the ancient Gods of Paradise, Chrysanthus ruled over either Gaia-8, Gaia-11, or Gaia-14. The Song of Chrysanthus is an epic poem that tells of the wars he fought to save his people from the Apomi, ancient demons.
Ruling over Gaia-8 would make Chrysanthus one of the Gods of Arch (those that came before Gaia-11), who are often attributed with mythical, impossibly magical powers. This would make Chrysanthus less "real" in the eyes of nonbelievers, but grant him more religious status to his followers.
Ruling over Gaia-11 is especially significant, and the most commonly held belief among Crystics. Gaia-11 was famously ruled by one singular God, often called the One God, the One, the One True God, the Father, the Reformer, the Risen, and the Refounder. There is no commonly agreed-upon name for this One God, so claiming Chrysanthus was the One God grants an enormous amount of legitimacy to the Crystic faith.
Ruling over Gaia-14, by far the least popular interpretation and typically held by non-believers, suggests that Chrysanthus was just one of the many Gods of War, part of hundreds of petty land-grabs, no more than a particularly well-remembered tyrant.
