Pantheons and Deities

the world shook and recoiled when the Inner sea pantheon died those centuries ago as vast power vacuums were torn open. Some new gods rose immediately while a few ancient gods made their return. Many more have risen and fallen in the two centuries and the doorway to godhood still seems to be open to those who can collect enough power, adoration, fear and awe.

Pantheons

The gods can be divided up many ways into several pantheons, some of which are listed here.

The Isolated Twins

Neith and Emaria were both heroes from near the dawn of time, two of five heroes who fought Moramu the first time the titan brought her claws to the worlds throat. They are the only two of those five who still survive, and have obtained this moniker as both of them largely prefer to stay isolated to their homelands and are not known to take many actions on Veris as a whole.

The Keys

Neith, Aluea, Valna, and Fenris before thier climatic fight with Pharasma and her kin, sealed away the Titan Moramu for the second time, and now their souls bind the titan in her prison, with the legends stating that should they all fall the Titan will once again walk free. While there were other heroes that helped them in this act, Bash and Willow, just like Kast who helped The Four eons and eons ago, they were not rewarded with divinity.

The Conquest Lords

Over a dozen gods so far have risen and fallen in the churning turmoil of the Warring Nations, and the name given to the collective of gods from that is known as The Conquest Lords. The name is a slight misnomer however, as while most of this group rose from action and violence, a few rose from more peaceful means of gaining the worship of the masses.

The Shadow Triad

Aroza, Enveris, and Venca are together known as the shadow triad, the pantheon of secrets darkness and death are blamed often for any ill, misfortune or scheme. It is known that these three work together, but their exact activities and motives are unknown.

Divine Conflicts

The borders between this world and the hungry void that lies beyond it weaken allowing things to cross over from the beyond.
