Okay, so this game is basically just fluff. Someone posts a name, then the next person writes a description for their god/dess. Then they post a name, and the next person writes a description, posts a name, and so on.

Examples given are not mine, but are used with permission of original author!

Player posts a name - Oshea, Goddess of

Next player posts the description and a name - Oshea, Goddess of Nurture. This goddess is believed to be the caretaker of children who have died and passed to the Paethnik (good afterlife), and protector of those who are still living. She is often depicted as a starving wolf, with children nursing on her. Her depiction is common on infantile items, such as swaddles and cribs. It is said that if you pray to her, she will grant you with fertility and happiness. She is important in this religion, and worshipped by children, parents, and those looking to conceive.

Babylon, Goddess of


Next player - Babylon, Goddess of Wicked Fauna. This goddess is believed to be the reason why some animals attack humans and their companions. She is often depicted an old woman, sitting atop an elephant with human beings impaled on the tusks.

Parathiac, the eternal God of Time. This god is believed to be the guardian of time and space, keeping the universe running. He is often depicted as a tall, thin human with the head of a lynx. It is believed that he can aid people with time management, and thus, many scholars have depictions of Parathiac hung under their clock, reminding them that time is sacred. He is worshipped by all in the religion.

Chamacah (gender is open I guess)

Chamacah, God of Semblance, He Who Rules What the Eyes See.

"And hark him who rules your sight,
trickster Chamacah who plays with eyes,
and from where he lives in the light,
spins his visions of beauty and lies."


The god who decides what your eyes see, Chamacah, is described as 'the Snake that Lives in the Sunlight on Glass and Moonlight on Water'. Thus, worshippers hang up mirrors inside their houses in order to receive his blessing, because it is believed that Chamacah lives in the light itself. Hunters often pray to him, because if they do not, he might decide to trick them into missing their prey by fooling with their sight. Maidens looking to marry often pray to Chamacah, asking him to make them look beautiful to the men that see them.
Sometimes, people call upon the harsh god of truth to chase Chamacah away, if they fear the trickster god is causing them mischief.

Praey, Goddess of
I know God will not give me anything I can not handle.
I just wish He didn't trust me so much.

Praey, Goddess of The Mountaintops
This Goddess is believed to be the protector of the entryway to the Gods. She is often depicted as an enormous forest frog with a poisonous touch so deadly that everything it touches withers away in an instant. She is important to this religion for she protects the balance between humans and Gods. She is not usually worshiped for her lethal poison is so deadly that once a human or animal breaths in her poisonous odor, they collapse dead.

(not so casually tries to get this going again)

Ucros, God of Corpses:
This god is believed to be the cause of decay and the one who guides souls after death. He first removes the soul from the body, then slowly breaks the body down and removes it piece by piece as he brings it to its final destination (aka why things rot). He is often depicted as a rotting tree or a black skeleton. His depiction is commonly seen engraved onto coffins or in the form of dead branches scattered around burial sites. It is said that if you pray to him, he will grant you with a safe and quick passage into the afterlife, but he is gentle with all souls regardless of religion. He brings souls to the afterlife of whatever religion they practiced while alive, or he lays them to rest if they do no have one.

Olevinya, goddess of

Olevinya, goddess of Flight.
This godless is believed to be the creator of all creatures that can fly. She is said to appear in multiple different forms, the most common forms she is describes as are a large snowy owl and a bald eagle, all holding a large feather from a unknown creature. She is important to this religion, because she is said to create the power of Flight for birds and any creature that is able to leave the ground in a flying way. She is worshiped by almost everyone, said to bring good fortune to those who prey mainly on birds and other flying creatures.

Palathion, god of creativity and ideas.
He is the reason why people want to create and make. His believed form looks like a normal middle aged man, but with four arms. Palathion plants ideas and creativity into the minds of people. He can be very quiet and shy at times (if you are to meet him) but can suddenly erupt into a frenzy of words. Palathion is the son of Chamacah. He is the husband of Faynes and has a son named Stayloas. Palathion is important to the religion because without him it probably would had not evolved into the civilization it is today.

(I hope it's okay if I tied Chamacah in as Palathion's father)

Staylaos, god of…

Staylaos, god of starlight and adventure. He kisses the sky every night to light the stars. His stars are said to be like maps that lead brave souls on great journeys away from Earth. He is depicted as a tall, handsome man with glowing eyes and a diamond ring on each finger, or he is simply shown as a sparkling diamond. Those who are lost or wish to escape from home worship him, in the hopes that he will allow them to journey out into space.

Gamarnia, goddess of ores. It's believed with every step she takes, more earth is pushed to the surface, unearthing previous hidden ore and gemstone deposits. Her hair flows in stunning dragon's breath opals, and she wears a dress of sapphire adornments, with luminescent skin and eyes of ore. Those who meet her are allowed to take one gemstone of her hair as good luck and fortune to the miners of that country.

Vitri, god of
