Primordial Deity

Primordial Deities, also shortened to just the Primordials, are the progenitors and ancestors of the gods of the pantheon they belonged to.
==Summary==
TBA
==Appearance==
For the most part, primordial gods have regular human forms of supernaturally beautiful people of different ages and ethnicities, though there's an unnatural aura around them that makes regular humans feel like there's something "strange" about them.
In reality, their true form are colossal titans of a cosmic scale, often standing multiple times greater than an actual planet, and are formed of pure divinity and cosmic energy. In this form, they are vaguely humanoid, but with strange and often eldritch features on them that place some primal fear into the mind of those who simply look at them.
==Characteristics==
It is difficult to describe the personality of a primordial god, as they are beings whose mind is beyond all things, with knowledge and wisdom far beyond what can be comprehended, with many crucial parts of the universe existing within them. Because of this, it is considered absurd to think that they are impersonal beings, existing only as forces in the universe.
For the most part, especially with the Progenitors and the older-generation Primordials, they are loyal to the Council of Godheads, though it's later revealed that their true loyalty laid in Hylemorphes, the Primal Source of all creative and destructive energy, and in Khaos who is the creator of all the progenitor gods.
They are devoted servants of fate, always striving to maintain the Four Great Gods at a perfectly balanced and harmonized state. However, that doesn't stop them from being one of the contributing factors toward its imbalance, as, much like regular gods, they are prideful beings who have no qualm about destroying entire civilizations that offend their "grand design". The only thing that stays their hand is if the offending civilization's continued existence has a net positive effect on the universe as a whole, and they evaluate such things thoroughly.
Due to their antiquity, unlike ordinary gods, they don't have to rely upon the veneration, worship, and sacrifice of mortals in order to maintain their divine authority, as their powers directly connect to ancient and powerful forces of the universe that predated humanity by billions of years.
As a result, many primordial gods don't get involved in religious matters within their respective pantheon, as they believe that such a problem doesn't require their attention.
==Types of Primordials==
*First Order (神々の一次, Kamigami no Ichiji): Also called the Progenitor (先祖の神々, Senzo no Kamigami), they are the original gods created by Gabriel from the purest energy of Hylemorphes and are considered her bastard children. They are the first gods of their pantheon, the parents and creators of other gods within their religion, and often act as the supreme High Gods of their respective faith.
*Second Order (神々の二次, Kamigami no Niji): They are the children and grandchildren of the Primordials within First Order, and were born roughly the same time as the Solar System did 4.6 billions years ago. They possess immense power and represent primordial forces of the universe, from primeval elements to concepts and ideas.
*Third Order (神々の三次, Kamigami no Sanji): The last generation of Primordials who embody abstract ideas and concepts, and were born in the Archean era. While they are powerful, they are on-par with ordinary non-primordial gods and mainly act as retainers, and/or servants of their parents or gods they swear loyalty to.
==Population==
While the exact number of primordial gods is unclear, according to Nyx, their number is "as numerous as the stars in the sky", ranging at the hundreds of billions. However, only a hundred of them decided to bind themselves to Earth, the first planet with signs of life, while the rest of them scattered across the mortal world, choosing suitable planets to cultivate, or wondering the universe and creating new celestial bodies.
==Factions==
===Elder Gods===
Elder Gods (), also known as the Guardians of the Immortal Prison, are a group of primordial gods who act as the guards of the Kokytus Prison, an interdimensional prison where the worst criminals of the supernatural world are imprisoned in eternal silence and solitude. Because of this, they are required to take a neutral stand toward all affairs that aren't affiliated with Kokytus, including ones directly related to them or their pantheon.
===The Celestials===
The Celestials (), also known as the Celestials-Forged-of-Stars, are a group of primordial gods who chose not to settle down on a planet and form any mythology or religion for themselves, instead focusing on creating, altering, and terra-forming new celestial bodies across the vast universe. They are known for their fascinations with pushing the boundary of their life-granting powers and are responsible for the creations of "irregular" alien species.

==Trivia==
*In some mythology, Primordials are known by groups, such as the Kotoamatsukami in Japan, the Ogdoad in Egypt, and the Protogenoi in Ancient Greece.
*Despite the majority of their descendants having resentment toward the Abrahamic religions and the Three Factions, especially toward Heaven, it's later revealed that many primordial gods are employed into the Four Great Seraphs' plans.
