Deity

Deities are cosmic beings endowed with the divine spark of creation. This spark allows them to influence the world an a variety of ways and create something from nothing. A deity can further influence the world by focusing their powers through domains of power, by binding themselves to a domain they limit their powers in other aspects but increase their power greatly in another.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Gods do not need bodies but often manifest them out of interest in the mortal world.

Genetics and Reproduction

God's can birth other Gods, they used to create demigods in the first world but have since been sworn against direct actions. Saints appear only through ascension though there is no repeatable instance of someone becoming a saint. Any being with a Divine Spark can become Hollowed should they remain within the First world for too long.

Dietary Needs and Habits

With Deities do not need anything they have found that the faith and souls of mortals can empower them. Also Gods have been known to wager a portion of their own Divine Spark or their Domains in their games.

Additional Information

Gods are not omnipotent or omnipresent. They are able to perceive anything they wish but unless it is within their domain they must make an effort to concentrate on such a thing to be aware of it

Civilization and Culture

Major Organizations

There are multiple types of deities:

• Gods
  • Those born of the Primus and Prima they hold the divine spark passed down from creation of the universe from the One Above All.
• Hollowed
  • When the First World was destroyed there were several Gods who had invested too much of their being into the world and died alongside it. But from the fiery pit of chaos and magic rose the three Hollowed, beings with the same Divine Spark but corrupted in subtle ways that made them anathema to the other Gods.
• Saints
  • Mortals or beliefs who have come to embody aspects of the world so much they ascended into divinity and enlightenment. While some have begrudgingly been accepted by the Gods a few keep to themselves.
• Outsders
  • All others that are alien to our world but able to control the vast powers with their own abilities are known as outsiders, beings thought to be Gods of another world or divine creations gone wrong, they are as unknowable to other deities as the Gods are unknowable to mortals.
