Crimmeran (Nyctophobia / fear of the dark): Primarily uses he/him or they/them, but like all gods, manifests as they want and doesn't really care. A minor god of the Night and Darkness, both literal and like in the soul. Falls under Chaos's (better name pending) authority. A mischievous deity, Cimmeran's not really responsible enough to be a city's patron deity, but a enough scattered cities, tons, and villages worship/believe in him that he's not at risk of withering. He bolsters this by playing petty pranks on travelers or granting boons. They can drain light from surrounding areas, instill temporary Nyctophobia (compounds if victim already suffers from Nyctophobia), grant mortals (typically temporary) night vision and control over darkness (on a smaller scale then him), and also temporarily make someone a generally worse person. Erstwile (Athazagoraphobia / fear of being forgotten): (P.S - Hit H to hide the scrolling background to admire his design if you want, and hit s to show it) Same deal with pronouns as Crimmeran. A minor god of memory, specifically forgetfulness. Falls into the grey area between Order and Chaos (Remember that for a little later). A quiet and shy deity, Erstwile is slowly withering. After a spat between Order and Chaos over a city (name pending if I win the dta), poor Erstie was called on by both, tearing his soul. Despite his widespread belief and scattered worship, he's been withering ever since. Think stage 4 cancer but for gods. His powers have also been diminished, he used to be able to instill amnesia (Antero and retro grade), erase victims from other's minds (within a small radius, often not completely), and give crippling Athazagoraphobia. Now his powers are reduced to recent memory loss and instilling faint Athazagoraphobia, barely even enough to be called a phobia. Their condition is not well known, as he wipes the few minutes/seconds the person saw them withering.
HUGE THANKS TO @Colorsnatch FOR THE ZOOMING CODE (click/tap) Hit right or space to see chaotic scratch sketches Bios above, context lore below Thanks to for the designs! Speedrun of my universe's god lore: Gods: So there are two great soul gods, one representing Chaos and one representing Order. (There are elemental gods and spirits but they don't matter since these two ain't elemental or spirits) Rules of the pantheon haven't been nailed down yet, but Chaos and Order have control over minor soul deities when they need it, and they're not really powerful enough on their own to go upsetting the battle between the Great gods on a universal scale, so they're more or less free to cause small-scale shenaniganry if they feel like it. Some fall into a grey area, and I'm working on rules for that. Oh on a side note, gods appear how they want, but most have preferred forms/genders. Worship: Without worship or belief, a god will eventually wither and die. Humans haven't figured this out yet, partially because if a god is forgotten and dies, the god is- well- forgotten, and partially because they're kinda stupid. The god's domain doesn't go away, it just loses the entity controlling it. Ex; a god of intellect dying doesn't make everyone stupid.
