Chthonic deities
The Chthonic Gods—deities of earth, shadow, and the quiet spaces between life and death. They do not reside on Olympus or in the sunlight of temples, but below, in the veins of stone, the roots of memory, and the thresholds of the forgotten.
The word Chthonic (from chthōn, meaning “earth” or “soil”) speaks not of dirt, but of the primordial depth—the sacred underrealm from which life springs and to which all returns. These gods are not evil, but they are not gentle either. They are guardian of the inevitable
