Gallaxy, The Knowledge Keeper

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gallaxy, or sometimes referred to as Gall, is a genderfluid being as well as being able to make many copies of Gallaxy's avatar. Gallaxy shifts through and edits everybody's magic capability and knowledge which makes little unknown to Gallaxy. Gallaxy is blind but has a special ink which helps Gallaxy to feel it. Gallaxy usually takes on a masculine appearance in whichever gender xe inhabits, in most viewings of Gallaxy, xe usually wears a t-shirt with some pants with plenty of pockets of holding to keep magical ink and pens, commonly connected within the library. The symbol of Gallaxy is the look of your book granted by Gallaxy (or by the player/DM).

The Guardian of Shadows, Silkea

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Silkea, the gender-neutral deity of darkness & the Shadows, sits in the capital city of Darklight guarding their home. Silkea is one of the older deities of the world as darkness has existed for millenniums. Silkea’s form is made out of a starlike slime, that shimmers and shines, the thing they most commonly wear is a cloak with a jacket over top. They own the Blade of Nightlight, a staff decorated with stars that glow and that is able to cast shadows around the wielder. Silkea's symbol is a ball of shadow.  

(Note: Please tell me if any of these identity parts are stereotypical or in general just not good. Also, send any suggestions through the ask box, primarily so that I can easily access them.) 

(Second Note: Appearances & everything else is currently in beta and may be subject to change.)

At the moment my pantheon has around 18ish deities that comprise roles within life. Most of my deities sway to no side but their own and so characteristics that embody them are who they are, this is my less good vs. evil that D&D does most of the time. 

Sol, The Reaper

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sol is the keeper of death in Nessilum, her job mostly being guarding the prison of death, she also manages the other side of death, the peaceful kind. When people view Sol most see a skeleton in a robe in the corner of their eye, but when face to face she welcome them within her cloak (warps them within the peaceful plane) or slice if they are immortals who have overstayed their dues (this warps them to the death prison). Sol also has a few family members who are not a deity but still deal with everyday deaths. Deals can be made between the deities Perennial and Sol in exchange for eternal life, but they are often harrowing and full of pain. The symbol of Sol is a scythe with a cloak weaved around it. 

Perennial, The Guardian of Time

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Perennial watches over the clocks of those that have not passed beyond the Planar Boundary. These clocks dictate the time that person has left but also important moments, these are indicated by the hours on the clock while the minutes are small but crucial events. Perennial guards the Great Clock, that dictates the course of the events, it is one of the only clocks that has special properties at 12 o’clock. When the clock hit 12 o’clock the Two Decades of Night began, no one knows if the clock will always being ruin at 12 but only Perennial knows. The symbol of Perennial is a broken clock, which ticks no more. 

(Note with some deities pronouns and nicknames for certain things are still being developed. Also, some of the lore of the characters presented may change in the future.)

(Sorry about the late post) 

There are about 18 planes, so far, in the Nessilum system. 

Here are two of them, don't worry the rest will be shown later. 

The Great Library of Magic

------------------------------------------

"*In front of you, you see shelves and shelves of books, each book emanating an energy of magic and power within them. You also see the guards & scribes - well only one really - Gallaxy, the deity of knowledge & magic*" - **The Liches of Conight**.

The great library is a huge section of knowledge and magic, only accessible to those allowed by Gallaxy. Each tome and book contains the magic and knowledge of all of the Planar system. Gallaxy guards the realm with vigilance seeking to make it entirely secure so none will destroy the magic and knowledge of the library. Each tome has to be updated randomly or when one gains new knowledge anywhere. Even the books of the gods are kept here, behind heavy doors, deep within. The library sits within the sea of Alean where all manners of dangerous sea creatures reside, that are plenty more dangerous than the plane of water. This sea hosts sea wyrms and krakens that, if stretched on end, would be about a thousand to three thousand miles long. Gallaxy ensures that no sea creature leaves as most are part of an environmental effort to retain old sea monster populations, but they mostly serve as good watchdogs. 

The Shadow Star

--------------------------------------------------

"Where I landed it seemed as though the earth itself was dark as well as the sky, all I could really see were the moons, though it seemed as if they barely cast any light. I soon saw eye-like lights on the horizon and I quickly escaped as I had never seen them upon Nessilum." - The Shadow Companion.

The Shadow Star is a mysterious plane constructed by Silkea, the deity of darkness & the Shadows. It is a plane built out of darkness, though this does not mean evil, simply a lack of light. The Shadows are a mysterious race, very rarely found on Nessilum, but more commonly found on Shadowfell & Shadow Star. When they are on Nessilum most shadows rely on the night, as a sort of day, though this does not mean that they cannot stand in the light, it is more because of easier seeing and such. If the light was allowed in the cities of The Shadows it would look absolutely beautiful to those without darkvision.  The Shadow Star is part of what casts shadows on other realms and obviously on Nessilum.
