== Backstory ==
Siddhārtha was born during the 4th century B.C.E., though much of his past life remains unknown. It is known that he began to think of the concept of Buddhism sometime before he became a deity, and that he had the ability to sense one's Life Energy at an early age. One day, whilst meditating underneath a tree, the young Siddhārtha was distrubed by a certain, near-ethereal presence he felt in the area. He opened his eyes to see a massive, muscle-bound man standing in front of him. Siddhārtha also took note of the gold halo protruding from the man. The man was surprised that the young boy was able to discern his Aura, and introduced himself as Gautama. 
Believing that Gautama was a Bodhisattva, or someone who had ascended to Nirvana, Siddhārtha pleaded to Gautama to teach him how to ascend to Nirvana. However, Gautama declined and instead sought to teach him other things - to teach him about the Deities. Gautama took Siddhārtha on as an apprentice, and taught him how to harness and control his Aura. Siddhārtha had an exceptionally powerful Aura, and in roughly 6th century B.C.E., he was ready to become a Deity.
