What is Faith?

Faith is devotion to a concept in the most literal sense— concepts, or rather, Divine Titles, are magical ideas that have so much consciousness and sentience that they are capable of bestowing their power to an entity within a realm. Divine Titles apply to specific areas of the general universe and typically do not apply to all scenarios; Kinyokar is the Asla'nirian God of the Sun and holds power over the Asla'nirian Sun, Aeli'tan. Religions are important for a few reasons, beyond the obvious— although it does serve to give people a sense of purpose or faith in a greater power, religion is also capable of granting people new abilities by adhering to the practices of a faith.

There were initially twenty-seven primary Gods within the pantheon of Asla'nir who created the world, but with four of them now being believed deceased and one simply choosing to give their full Title to their student, the main pantheon has seen changes over the years. Some, such as Vivek'tir, were outright forgotten and now most believe there to have only been twenty-six major Gods. Many Demigods, Pseudo Gods, and Cults have emerged over the years and it is up to the Demigods and Pseudo Gods to ensure that the world continues to operate in the absence of the Nephi, Abrorik, and Primaeval Gods of the universe. Within Dar'nik, however, there were simply fourteen involved in its creation - with only eight being recognised by the people of Tir'anor in the modern age.

Whilst most individuals within the world of Asla'nir recognize that the Gods created the world, there are still those who refuse to bow to any of the Gods— which, admittedly, is fair, given that most of the contributions of the primary Gods in the pantheon within past million years to Asla'nir have been incredibly limited since they left a few million years ago. There have been Demigods born to them, certainly, and their descendants have done many notable things, such as Enyomirak freeing slaves during the Battle of Neora City, negotiating the freedom of slaves with Aleria, and serving as High Queen of Aloernarch; Nethis serving as a politician within Vasterioth; or Lennox bringing Udoxa into a golden age, but the Highest themselves have been effectively absentee parents to the world that they created.

This contrasts the Gods of Dar'nik however— Tir'anor is actively theocratic and fervent in their worship of the Gods due to the fact that the Dar'nikian pantheon was incredibly active during Dar'nik's existence, creation, and Tir'anor's rescue from the Aberrant threat. Demigods serve as their leaders to this day, in fact, and their entire culture is centred around the recognition and reverence of the Gods. An atheist in Tir'anor is almost unheard of and admittedly, would probably be a social outcast from Tir'anor's very religious peoples. It serves as a strong contrast to Asla'nir, who has a fair number of atheists in comparison.

An Introduction to Divine Titles

So, what makes a God a God? Simply put, that is a Divine Title— a God is a God if it has a Divine Title. Anyone else who claims to be a God is... well, just claiming it. Demigods, Pseudo Gods, Highest, and Lowest alike all have Divine Titles that make them have these 'Godly abilities,' so to speak. Any other so-called 'Divine' or 'Holy' figure is likely leading a Cult, which will be detailed in greater depth later, although nothing really stops them from being a leader of a 'heretical sect' either.

Divine Titles, in their simplest form, are concepts that have the ability to manifest their will through the form of Gods, which serve as Avatars for them. Divine Titles are complex— they can be obtained through two major ways: Inheritance and Ascendance. In order to Inherit a Divine Title, one must be gifted the Title by the previous holder— one can technically 'expand' their Title this way, which will be discussed later— in some shape or form. In order to Ascend to receive a Divine Title, one must instead embody a Divine Title to such a degree that it chooses to latch onto them and grant them its power. This is not always through a good way, either, mind you. For instance, one could obtain the Title of Power by being powerful, but it's not unheard of to obtain it through quite negative, traumatising experiences as well that scar one for life. Titles can also be obtained in multiple ways— one can become a God of Suffering through suffering to such an extreme that suffering is all they know or through making everyone else around them suffer to such an extreme degree.

Most individuals are unaware that Gods are not truly Gods, however, simply Avatars and thus worship them as Gods regardless. When one worships a God, they are worshipping a sentient concept, an aspect of magic, and gain power from that concept— the God that they are worshipping, however, can set limits for what garners their power in exchange for worship. For instance, Nethis, the God of Death and Judgement, prohibits anyone from gaining power within their faith by preventing those who have committed True Sins from doing so. Not every God is capable of doing this without a very strong boundary that is easy to define, nor are they inherently strong enough within their Title to perform such a feat unless they are a particularly older God. Even then, some are not particularly capable of repelling false worshippers of their ideology from obtaining their power, as seen with Tyrea, where heretics still were capable of garnering abilities from worshipping her.

When a God dies, however, their Divine Title remains— followers can gain minor abilities from worshipping a God in their death, but most of this is the result of having practised and earned these abilities through worshipping them before their death. In most cases, new followers, as well as those who were not particularly devout, are forced to find worship in the new wielder of that Divine Title in order to maintain the blessings granted by the Divine Title.

Wielding a Divine Title

Not all individuals with Divine Titles are aware they have them— Salvia of the Amuery Clan possesses one, but since she obtained it so recently, she is entirely unaware of it and no one worships her anyway— and some individuals with them refuse to be called Gods nor acknowledge that they are one to begin with, such as Lennox. Divine Titles have the intriguing quality of warping individuals who receive them over time - if they didn't embody the concept beforehand well enough, they certainly will after several thousand years and most individuals who have Divine Titles describe them as being remarkably insufferable. As mentioned earlier, Divine Titles are not always a good thing to obtain, nor do they come through good means— becoming the God of Suffering is actually quite terrible for a few reasons, in fact, as hinted at earlier.

Being warped into becoming the Avatar of a Divine Title is actually not a blessing at all, nor a particularly fun fate. Divine Titles are known for inducing general suffering in those who possess them. A God of Suffering begins to feel the suffering of all around them, a God of the Earth begins to feel the weight of Asla'nir come crashing down on their spine, and a God of Possibilities begins to witness all that there is, has been, and ever will be until it drives them mad. Whilst it might come with power, that power has a cost, as described in the Ancient Tome— there is no such thing as a free power-up and this particular power-up is quite miserable. Beyond this, of course, there are the duties attributed with being a God, such as defending the planet, maintaining the tasks provided with your Title, so on and so forth. For instance, Enyomirak is required to carefully restrain most natural disasters and only allow those that will benefit the nature within that region to unfold.

Defining Divine Titles

Divine Titles fall into categories, more often than not. For instance, there are a wide variety of Death Gods, but whether or not they are a God of Judgement or a God of Destination makes a complete difference in what they stand for. A Divine Title can also fall into more than one category as well— take, for instance, the two opposing forces of Lennox and Xanthiah, the 'Finale' Gods - both are Soul Gods, without a doubt, but Xanthiah falls underneath the Death God category much like her family, given her role as a Goddess of Destination and Lennox falls underneath the Reality God category alongside the likes of their parents, given their role as the Deity of Infinite Possibilities. These are both instances of Gods inheriting their abilities from other Gods and whilst they are opposing forces, they still have different categories all the same.

Most Gods have a multi-faceted Title - essentially meaning that most Gods rule over roughly three things or more, but the more things they rule over, the less power they have within one aspect of their Title. One of those aspects of that Title is also their primary aspect. For instance, Enyomirak is the Goddess of Power, Destruction, and Natural Disasters. Whilst Enyomirak is a Power Goddess, her speciality is Destruction. Whilst Gods generally do not overlap in their specialities within a pantheon, Gods may overlap in their 'associations' or the other aspects of their title. Arikar has a minor association with sexuality and Ki has a strong association with sexuality, but despite that, their Titles are very different - Arikar is a War Goddess and Ki is an Emotion God.

Divine Titles have always been defined in Asla'nir as being singular until the introduction of the Dar'nikian pantheon: There is one God of the Underworld, there is one God of the Sun, but what happens when there isn't? Simply put, multiple individuals can embody a singular concept, but they do it in different ways. Kinyokar and Ma'atdara might both be Sun Gods, but they still rule over different Suns. Cer'berik and Nethis are both Gods of the Underworld according to those who worship them, but they served entirely different groups of individuals until recently— now, they both see Tir'anorians. Admittedly, Divine Titles are actually usually quite singular within a single world— Enyomirak is the Goddess of Power and Destruction. No one else can be because Enyomirak is still serving this role for Asla'nir. Divine Titles are granted in order to fulfil a role for some section of the universe, for one pantheon. Speaking of which... what is a pantheon?

Pantheon

Pantheons are generally defined by a group of Gods serving over a specific region or being within a certain group of fellow Gods— the Asla'nirian Pantheon held domain over Asla'nir and the Dar'nikian Pantheon held domain over Dar'nik. Despite that, these titles are entirely given to these pantheons in question by the individuals worshipping them. In reality, they were both groups of friends who decided to strike out from the Eternal Conflict and create worlds to get away from it all— only to then be drawn back into this ceaseless battle all the same. Gods within a pantheon cannot have overlapping Titles but Gods from other pantheons technically can.

Pantheons, whilst not always, are usually headed by one or two Gods— if not within the main group, then most certainly within the categories of the Gods. Nethis leads the various Death Gods, for instance— this is due to their Title being greater over Death than the others and perhaps due to the fact that they are the oldest God currently on Asla'nir. It is not unheard of for a God to hold a stronger grasp over a category than other Gods within a pantheon and this grasp can be expanded by being granted a Title, most certainly. For instance, Vastar was the major God of Death within Asla'nir until he decided he wanted to retire and spend more time with his wife after the fate of his children— he passed it along to his student, Nethis, who now serves in his stead. It is very common for lesser Gods to serve more major Gods and seek out their tutelage— this is what younger Nephi do with older Nephi and it is reflected very much in the same way with the Abrorik. When the God with the most power over a category decides to step down, they pass along their task to another— it is simply a natural part of an Inheritance seen within any other job, somewhere along the lines of kids inheriting the family business.

Types of Gods

Highest and Lowest

Highest and Lowest are generally defined as far older Gods than the ones seen in Asla'nir that serve as the parents to many of the ones actively seen within the world— Highest are typically Nephi, such as Adonius, Ireakh, Akharic'tl, Zinaka, etcetera and Lowest are typically Abrorik, such as G'hira, Ekid'rak, Qira'tok, Khon'metzu, etcetera. Highest are defined as Gods that originate from the Higher Planes and Lowest are defined as Gods that originate from the Lower Depths. Despite that, there are some Nephi that still serve as Lower Depths Gods despite Nephi being innately attributed to the Higher Planes, such as many Death Gods like Cer'berik and Nethis. In fact, Death Gods are typically not Abrorik at all— most seen within and discussed about within Asla'nir are from the Syrekkus bloodline, such as Vastar, Azrael, Xanthiah, and Ouroborus. These are the so-called 'absentee parents' of Asla'nir as referenced earlier— most Highest and Lowest do not actively interfere in day-to-day matters within Asla'nir, although the Abrorik still tend to their Eldritch Tribes.

Demigods

Demigods are individuals who have Divine origins— either they were created by a Highest or Lowest or are directly descended from one, generally up until the God in question is a grandparent. It turns out, being 1/16th God doesn't normally qualify for this category. Demigods do not always have Divine Titles— there have been multiple throughout history who have not, such as Anais, the Crimson Vanguard, daughter of G'hira. Most Demigods, Divine Title or not, have the innate quality of being ageless and highly resistant to disease, as well as generally stronger than their typical kin, but notably feature the race of their non-Divine parent. Demigods are quite prone to developing Divine Titles, even if it takes them millions of years, perhaps because they are generally innately skilled within an aspect similar to their parents, but generally because when their parent dies, they end up Inheriting their Title. There are a few individuals who have received Divine Titles who have minimal following within Asla'nir and thus are not within the wiki.

Psuedo Gods

Called Pseudo Gods due to the fact that they have absolutely or rather minimal Divine parentage, these individuals were originally non-Divine and ended up with a Divine Title somehow. They're generally not recognised as Gods for a bit longer than most other Gods, but most individuals, in general, take thousands of years to be recognised as Gods anyway, even with a notable Divine Title. Some individuals will not recognise them as a proper God, even if these individuals could probably punt them into a wall regardless. Pseudo Gods develop qualities of Demigods - they are ageless and highly resistant to disease, as well as generally stronger than their typical kin.

Forsaken Gods

A generalised category that applies to a wide multitude of Gods, there are three primary categories found within this section: Deceased Gods, which applies to any entity with a Divine Title who has perished and thus by proxy lost their Title; Deserted Gods, those who have completely abandoned their Title and passed it off to someone else; and the Forgotten or the Inactive, Gods so ancient that they have been almost entirely lost to time and have no real religious influence on the world in the modern day by any stretch of the means. Worshipping almost any of these Gods provides such a minimal amount of power that one would find themselves practically on par with worshipping a cult— the longer a God has been Forsaken, the more that a worshipper’s gifts will wither away. After a certain point, there is hardly any point to worshipping them as they are long gone. The only exception to this rule are Forgotten Gods or Inactive Gods, whose power lingers, albeit generally weaker than a God who has active presence within the mortal plane☺ their worshippers are so slim in number, however, that this hardly matters.

Cults

So what about those that claim to be Gods that are not Gods? Those are generally classified under the term Cult— not all Cults are bad, nor are they inherently good. A Cult is merely a religion that either lacks a figurehead with a Divine Title or does not follow anyone who possesses a Divine Title. As such, they are run entirely by mortals who have no inherent power. Followings of dead Gods tend to get labelled here as well, as do religions that focus on spirits or spiritualism without inherent Deity worship. Cults are distinguished from other Faiths in that they provide no actual magic whatsoever— heretical sects that completely defy that which the God has instated may also fall under here, but some of those still are capable of granting magical power and thus are not Cults, as the basis of their commandments is not inherently defiant, but what it permits is essentially spitting in the God's face, as seen with the Order of Light, which technically falls under what would be permissible by Tyrea's control over her Divine Title, except for the crucial detail where the laws that it forces its followers to obey allows for slavery.

Gods can only do so much, sometimes, in those cases.

Divine Species

Nephi

The Gods most recognised within the world of Asla'nir that compose half the major pantheon and almost the entirety of the Dar'nikian pantheon, Nephi are described as entities composed entirely of light so bright that it can eternally blind someone. Nephi are said to have been incredibly large naturally, given the buildings they constructed, but compacted themselves to interact with others, much like how they took the shape of other races instead, to not blind anyone they communicate with that is not Divine. Cambions and Celestials can trace their origins back to them and most Celestials claim that they are nigh Nephi themselves (although they are incredibly inaccurate). Admittedly, most individuals who see what an Asla'nirian Nephi would typically take the form of would recognise them to be more similar to a Cambion in appearance, but Nephi can take any shape— be it an animal or some other sapient race. Nephi are described as typically taking the form of humanoids with multiple sets of primarily feathered wings that are in various hues of colours, generally with at least one set of horns and some form of a ring referred to as a halo centring around their head. No Cambion nor Celestial can resemble this in any shape— neither have coloured feathered wings nor do they feature halos as Nephi do. Ancient Cambions and Celestials, however, look far more similar to them in appearance and wield magic and possess physicality more on par with the Nephi. Dar'nikian Nephi were known for taking more bestial shapes, but the similarities in form remain. Nephi originate from the Higher Planes, although some reside in the Lower Depths. All Nephi are associated with Sacrum Deum.

Abrorik

Composing roughly half of the Asla'nirian pantheon, the Abrorik, sometimes referred to as the 'Eldritch Gods' are said to have created the first Eldritch— most claim that this was a group of Nephi who made the mistake of intruding too far into Ekid'rak's territory, but whatever the case, most Eldritch revere them, as well as serve underneath them within Gnaiih. Abrorik are said to take convoluted shapes that would drive anyone mad by simply gazing upon them, with their true forms being large enough to rival Nephi, if not larger. Despite that, Abrorik were also known for taking on mortal shapes to avoid harming those on Asla'nir— typically in the form of their Eldritch kin, but sometimes in the shape of other races as well. Due to the wide variety in what shape Abrorik take, there is no definitive blanket statement, however, most were noted for their aura and presence— as if there was something off or eerie about them, on a far grander scale than just a typical Abomination taking a shape. Abrorik almost entirely originate from the Lower Depths and are associated with Vis Stellae.

Primaeval

Although merely spoken of in hushed whispers and barely understood, Primaevals are not common on Asla'nir, nor within the known universe— their terrible might has only been witnessed by a select few and their power is incomprehensible. Primaevals are the only Gods to wield reality as though it were nothing more than clay and they bear the power of Spatium Tempus. Primaevals are not common on Asla'nir and there is believed to be a singular one remaining. Primaevals are generally described by the few Gods that the writers of the Encyclopedia Ultimatus have managed to interview as universal and those who wield the magics of reality itself. Still, given their almost non-existent presence on Asla'nir and their primary containment to Udoxa, most are unfamiliar with Primaevals and those who worship them are slim in number. They are described as taking on the form of 'great beasts' and some of the most ancient Abrorik and Nephi claim that the Primaevals themselves produced the planets and Divine races within the known universe. Still, it is believed that their rarity is explained by their inability to linger for too long on the mortal plane without some sort of special assistance.

Asla'nirian Nephi

Regarded as many as 'absentee parents,' there were originally twelve major Asla'nirian Nephi, but in the modern era, only ten still hold their Divine Title due to the death of Adonius and the retiring of Vastar. Asla'nirian Nephi are entirely absent from the everyday lives of Asla'nirians and spend the bulk of their effort and time on the Eternal Conflict, rather than actually paying much mind to their creations. Despite that, they are by far the most popular Gods within Asla'nir and are worshipped by almost the entire population with the exception of those found in Tir'anor. Splintered apart by civil war, most Asla'nirian Nephi do not communicate with one another during the modern era. Certain Nephi, however, are very active within the world of Asla'nir, such as Nethis and Nasrin, and some partake on a more distant scale— Fyjra reincarnates the dead so that new life can be born whereas Vastar manages the Underworld.

Active Gods

Alyriana, Goddess of Knowledge, Wisdom, and Will.
Arikar, Goddess of Strategy, Victory, and Courage.
Fyjra, Goddess of the Nature, Reincarnation, and Adaptation.
Ireakh, Goddess of Creativity, Craftsmanship, and Ingenuity.
Iro, Deity of Chaos, Ambition, and Trickery.
Ki, God of Emotions, Sexuality, and Love.
Kinyokar, God of the Sun, Fertility, and Day.
Nasrin, Deity of Rejuvenation, Resurrection, and Repentance.
Nethis, Deity of Judgement, Vengeance, and Death.
Selira, Goddess of the Moon, Witchcraft, and Night.
Sseth'ak, God of the Hunt, Betrayal, and Blood.
Tyrea, Goddess of Order, Law, and Justice.
Vastar, God of the Underworld, Funerals, and the Dead.

Deceased Gods

Adonius, God of Strength, Bravery, and Rage.
Azrael, Goddess of Fate, Destination, and Sacrifice.

Asla'nirian Abrorik

Unlike Asla'nirian Nephi, Asla'nirian Abrorik pay quite a bit of mind to Asla'nir, but generally do not directly reside within Asla'nir itself. Instead, most Asla'nirian Abrorik tend to their Eldritch Hives within isolated pocket dimensions within the Void. Asla'nirian Abrorik, although they have made a large impact upon Asla'nir in the same way that Asla'nirian Nephi have, they are generally not worshipped by most Asla'nirians and are generally localised to Udoxa and the Eldritch peoples with few exceptions, such as G'hira. Some are remarkably involved with Asla'nir, such as Lho'ghrim, who maintains the entire Mindseer Race, but some are not nearly as involved.

Active Gods

Chthk'tik, God of Pestilence, Rot, and Resilience.
Ehyei'ahloi, Goddess of Perception, Boundaries, and Trauma.
Ekid'rak, Goddess of the Preternatural, the Abyss, and the Void.
G'hira, Goddess of the Depths, Beauty, and Wrath.
Ja'kor, God of War, Honour, and Valiance.
Kor'akan, God of Deprivation, Famine, and Persistence.
Lho'grim, God of Authority, Control, and Unity.
N'ghora, Goddess of Corruption, Overgrowth, and Manipulation.
Qir'atok, God of the Heavens, the Hearth, and the Stars.
Shogg'aka, Goddess of Terror, the Unknown, and Overcomance.
Xi'logoth, God of Sin, Guilt, and Grief.
Za'hika, Goddess of Hedonism, Pleasure, and Excess.

Deceased Gods

Ahun'eog, God of Authority, Control, and Unity.

Primaeval Gods

There are very few Primaeval Gods within the history of Asla'nir, with only two serving as major figureheads within the Asla'nirian Pantheon due to Vivek'tir's death resulting in him becoming forgotten by history. Primaevals and their children are the only Gods truly powerful enough to create the likes of immense celestial bodies such as those seen with worlds, or, in the very least, are the main individuals who know how to produce such creations. It is reasonable to attribute both Dar'nik and Asla'nir to their creation, as although Dar'nik was created after Isolde's death, it was through his teachings that one of his children, Akharic'tl was capable of producing Dar'nik. That being said, most Primaeval feature very little intrigue in mortal affairs— most are not even part of the Eternal Conflict, for that matter. It is reasonable to assume that no additional Primaevals will become interested in Asla'nir within the future. Beyond Lennox and Vivek'tir, however, the location of the other Primaeval Gods are uncertain— Vivek'tir has been confirmed to be deceased and whilst Isold'ekir was slain and Ma'akali has been missing, their worshippers are still very capable of wielding their power as if they were alive, as slim as they are.

Active Gods

Lennox, Deity of Infinity, Possibilities, and Finality.

Inactive Gods

Isold'ekir, God of Space, Creation, and Advancement.
Ma'akali, Goddess of Time, Destruction, and Progression.

Deceased Gods

Vivek'tir, God of Infinity, Possibilities, and Prophecy.

Asla'nirian Demigods

Those who are related to an Abrorik, Primaeval, or Nephi, yet are half-mortal are referred to as Demigods— although Tir’anorians have a specific term for their Demigods, Asla’nir has nothing of the sort. Many Demigods are active in participating within their communities or in servitude of Asla’nir due to their mortal ties. Their origins vary, as does their heritage, but one thing is certain— they are respectable and powerful regardless of their mortal origins. Although most are not on par with actual Nephi, Abrorik, or Primaeval, they remain notable all the same and are powerful reminders of the Gods’ original involvement with Asla’nir.

Active Demigods

Basajarau, Demigod of Strength, Protection, and Beasts.
Daidara, Demigod of Earth, Patience, and Endurance.
Enyomirak, Demigoddess of Power, Natural Disasters, and Destruction.
Long Gui, Demigod of Dawn, Progeny, and Regality.
Nex, Demigoddess of Guidance, Spirits, and Fearlessness.
Phtoh'kraoy, Demigods of Duality, Impulsivity, and Metamorphosis.
Xanthiah, Demigoddess of Fate, Destination, and Sacrifice.

Inactive Demigods

Drakara, Demigoddess of Violence, Outrage, and Rancour.

Deceased Demigods

Nazsara, Demigoddess of Suffering, Anguish, and Falsities.

The Dar'nikian Pantheon

The Dar'nikian Pantheon is exclusive to the previous inhabitants of Dar'nik and the people of Tir'anor— although their titles may seem similar to many Gods of Asla'nir, they primarily affected the Dar'nikian Empire. Now that it is destroyed, many of these Gods have diminished Titles as a result of the loss of their worlds, suns, and moons. Despite that, the Dar'nikian Pantheon has always been incredibly invested in their creations and has actively involved themselves in their everyday lives, even now, post-Dar'nikian destruction. Although they feature eight major Gods, there are a variety of lesser Gods that are still valued just as much, albeit not inherently as involved within their politics.

Active Nephi

Akharic'tl, Goddess of Creativity, Innovation, and Outer Space.
Alyr'kri, Goddess of Intelligence, Wisdom, and Wit.
Cer'berik, Gods of the Underworld, Trinity, and Death.
Ma'atdara, Goddess of the Light, Oaths, and Justice.
Zinaka, Goddess of Nature, Mercy, and Truth.

Active Abrorik

Khon'metzu, God of the Night, Mana, and Satellites.
Tia'mir, God of War, the Hunt, and Beasts.
Teo'lankh, Goddess of Destination, Cunning, and the Arcane.
Ziohän, the God of the Heavens, Air, and Trickery.

Dar'nikian Demigods

The bulk of the Dar'nikian Divine, Dar'nikian Demigods, sometimes called 'Living Gods' are crucial members of Tir'anorian society. For the entirety of the span of the Dar'nikian Empire, Dar'nikian Demigods have been the leaders of Dar'nikian society, both politically and religiously. Referred to as 'Gods on earth,' in reference to their physical presence within the mortal realm, these individuals are Demigods of the Dar'nikian Pantheon who serve their people in every sense of the word— they create laws, serve as government workers, lead religious practices, and protect the people of Tir'anor from all who would seek to harm them.

Active Living Gods

Arsinoe'heka, Living God of Dimensions, Celestial Bodies, and Magitech.

Psuedo Gods

Psuedo Gods bound to Asla'nir or Dar'nik, these individuals were not initially Divine, much like other Psuedo Gods, and are specifically attributed to the Asla'nirian peoples. Although they have varying origins, they came to embody their titles and thus became Divine or were granted their title by a God of some sort. Asla'nirian Psuedo Gods generally do not take up major roles within the pantheon but do have some effect on Asla'nir, even if their followings are typically quite small and minor in nature.

Active Asla'nirian Psuedo Gods

Drn’kadishtu, Mindseer Psuedo Deity of Liberation, Freedom, and Truth.
Vespera, Daiesthai Pseudo God of Desire, Aspiration, and Attraction.
