Kostean Pantheon
Written in myth and legend, the Kostean pantheon are the gods responsible for the creation of all. Existing since the start of the universe, these gods are responsible for the creation and running of various important aspects of it, from life to death and everything in between.
Their names and roles are:
Ascot, God of nurturing and knowledge
Azura, God of Mind, thoughts, and all that it encompasses.
Celeste, Goddess of the physical universe.
Santhus, God of the Deceased and Beyond.
Sarandiel, Goddess of life and light
History
A group existing since the old universe, the gods of the pantheon were once regular humans. Attempting to bring peace to their world, they created creatures to manipulate emotions. However, they eventually lost control of this power and in the ensuing accident their entire universe was destroyed, and they were transformed. Now, having become gods of a shattered world, they used their new powers to recreate the universe from scratch, though their afoul creations still roamed the land, and they retreated into the shadows to avoid causing another cataclysm.
Mythology & Lore
The Kostean Pantheon is at the core of Kostean Mythology, as it is made of the literal gods that all other mythology is built around. Responsible for the creation of Kostea, and all that inhabits it, the world and the Mythology itself cannot exist without the gods.
Divine Origins
The Kostean Pantheon's creation is allegedly detailed in the Kostea: The Creation Story.
Ethics
According to myth, the gods choose not to engage directly with the universe, out of fear of causing another Cataclysm.
Granted Divine Powers
Though not widely known or understood, gods can and have granted powers to specific mortals they choose, turning them into Demi-deities.
Political Influence & Intrigue
The gods arguably have the greatest political influence of any beings in existence, as their words can literally become reality. Their non interference habits however have led to them fading into myth, causing their true influence to be forgotten.

It's an interesting set of pantheons - those domains aren't really ones I've seen before. Are these gods real, or are they a myth? As for the requested feedback - I would consider maybe expanding upon each individual god (two columns would be great for that, formatting voice). What are they like, what do they look like, what are their symbols or icons? Since you are going to write the individual articles later, you could even make it just a short overview, then add a blocklink to them in that spot :)

Thank you!! :D The gods are very much real, though that isn't known to the majority of people in the world. I'll definitely add-in more info about each god, though I will wait until the individual articles are done first because I still have not worked out each god fully, and I don't want to spam updates constantly if I can avoid it. "formatting voice" I don't know what this means, could you explain it please? I'm new to public writing sorry
That... Is a typo. I meant to say formatting choice. :D Whoops But for more info on formatting, I recommend checking out this guide:
