#vxoru deities

Description: Edelis’s domain is in the collection of knowledge and heat and fire. He is the purveyor and seeker of knowledge, and strangely enough, the controller of heat. He is portrayed with horns that are permanently on fire, and wearing clothes that help him store his scrolls, as he writes by scorching the words into the writings. He is always carrying a staff with an orb that he uses to scry and see into space. He hates Karjus the most, as he thinks his barbaric nature is simply too prehistoric and beyond him (however, he does understand his necessity). He is fickle like the rest of the gods, holding himself as a highly intellectual, perceiving the rest as fairly dumb. the only one that he considers to be his intellectual equal is Maexkhavarra, but he would never say that to his face.

Personality: Uppity, sophisticated, and overly confident in his intelligence, he tends to look down on the very savage Malici and sees those that seek knowledge as being the only ones with a shred of intelligence. He is extremely well read and calculating with his words, always thinking ahead of his opponent or ally, trying to make sure he will always have an intellectual edge.

Description: Sur’s domain is in the eternal grasp of death. He governs the souls of the dead, and makes sure that the process of reincarnation is continued. Sur has magnificent horns, representing just the kind of control that he holds over death. He does not partake in the squabbles of the other gods, and cares the least about them, as he is just concerned with maintaining the cycle. Of all the gods, he likes Wisk the most, as she is the most compassionate and understanding of the task he has to continue (this isn’t by alot though). He is portrayed with tattered robes and carries along a large staff that he uses to walk around, like a walking stick.

Personality: He barely talks, ever. He just simply doesn't find any reason to. Because of his detachment from the other gods, he is simply regarded as a loner or an anomaly, and during the rare occasions he does attend meetings, its usually out of boredom, curiosity, or simply because Wisk asked him to. He is fairly neutral to all the gods, and all the gods are fairly neutral to him. Even Karjus does not pick on him simply because he knows that he far outclasses him in terms of strength, and of purpose. He is well respected, but the other gods don’t let him know that. When he does talk, its always purposeful, and every economic with the way he speaks. In times of vulnerability, he can be very poetic and thoughtful, and this reveals his true nature, one that understands but despises the necessity of this existence.

Prenote: You’d think the Malici wouldn’t need a Goddess of Peace? It’s weird.

Description: Wisk’s domain is in peace, and unity. In a domain like Vxoru, its a wonder how it still manages to function as a society. Wisk acts as the mediator of the Malici, the one that attempts to settle arguments and disputes peacefully to come with agreements. Wisk has the smallest horns amongst the gods, but holds the most respect, as all the gods, even Karjus, understand how important she is to the continued prosperity of the Malici. She is portrayed as dressed in formal raiment, wearing a laurel of flowers. She is the smallest of the gods, but when speaking in a meeting, everyone falls silent to listen to her (for the most part). Comparatively, she is the most respected of all of them.

Description: Maexkhavarra’s domain is in deceit. In a society of war, pain, and conflict, deception and subterfuge is commonplace amongst the dimwitted and the wily. He is depicted as a god with the most intricate horns, intertwining on itself and branching downward. Unlike the other gods, he is slender but fit, with a very malicious grin, befit with sharp teeth and a long forked tongue. He has a very appealing and almost hypnotic voice, and his movement is always with purpose, moving almost like water, and hypnotic to the eye. Maexkhavarra is usually dressed in long flowing robes, and wearing a cloak to cover his face.

Personality: Maexkhavarra is cunning and feels as if he is above the other gods. He prides himself being the most charismatic and intelligent, even over Edelis. He enjoys company and teamwork of Gorag Vei the most, as he understands, fear and manipulation go hand in hand. He craves for power, and uses his knowledge of secrets and manipulation to have himself always in a position of advantage over others. He will always manipulate the other gods in order to reach is own ends, and always does things just to gain him an edge. He simply sees the Malici as pawns to see to his own ends and agendas. Of all the gods, he fears Sur the most, as he sees death as the end of his machinations that he loves so much.

Description: Triophr’s domain is in the strength and unity of Family bonds, and the birth of offspring. She is depicted as a fully grown and slightly bigger Malici female, with great horns showing her high status, and extremely large wings, being the only Malici to ever have wings. These wings are impervious and can be used to protect anything she covers. Also since she has wings she can fly. Triophr is also exceptionally strong and stubborn, usually punching the shit out of things if she dosent get what she wants, and usually punching things to get what she wants.

Personality: Triophr is a very firm, loving yet fiery woman. Even if they come intro fights alot, Triophr loves everyone of the gods like a mother would, and fiercely protects them. Any threats to the Malici as a race she deems as a number one priority, and does whatever she can to propagate their race. Another well known fact about Triophr is that she is very promiscuous, sometimes possessing female Malici and engaging in many sexual acts, and children that do come out of this are usually stronger than most other Malici. However she does not have any sexual feelings for many of the other gods.

Description: Gorag Vei’s doman is in suffering, he feeds off the plight and sorrow of others, be it emotional or physical pain. Because of this, he takes on a permanently shifting body, comprised of mostly small insect like organisms, and always exhumes deadly miasma of diseases and such. His touch is extremely deadly, and has many long spikes sticking out of his body with small jagged sides designed not to kill but slowly rip out flesh.

Personality: Gorag Vei is very animated. His body twists and turns in almost anyway, creating this view of an ever moving mass of insects and disease. He speaks in either a quick or fast low hushed tone, working on the fear of what people don't understand. He is prone to laughing about almost anything morbid, and finds comfort hearing the screams or soft weeping of any living being, even other Gods. He will often manipulate situations to make the other gods feel uncomfortable, or suffer to get what they want. The only god he is fearful of is Eledis, because the one fear that Gorag has is the sensation of burning (not on others, just himself), and that Eledis is far too smart for his machinations. However, he works well with other gods when the time calls for it, as his skill with making people suffer is almost unmatched, and completely horrifying.

Description: Karjus’s domain is in conflict, wether it be the battlefield or even a simple arguement between two. He does what he can to arbiter conflicts and help the side he wishes to by bestowing upon them strength and blind rage and hatred. Anything that causes two sides to oppose each other in anyway, Karjus will approve of and forward.

Personality: Manipulative and slightly psychopathic, Karjus usually comes into conflict with alot of the other gods (suprisingly). He is always agitated and energetic, ready to fly into a raged bloodlust at any moment. Quick to anger (And he even enjoys it), but also very quick to calm down, in the right moments he can be surprisingly rational, or completely batshit crazy. He has a wierd love/hate relationship with Wisk, the Goddess of peace. He hates the fact that she completely opposes everything he stands for, he understands that without peace, great conflicts would just be meaningless. He has romantic feelings yet feelings of intense hatred towards her. Otherwise, he gets along very badly with the other Gods due to his personality, even if they would be of use to him he always finds something to be angry about to argue. He is usually considered the strongest of the Gods.
