Erendei

“The fires of desire burn brighter than any source of perceivable light.”

Hyuzu (Youngest Son)

Erendei, also called “Pyro” is The God of Desire and the husband of Aure, The Supreme Goddess. He is the patron of pirates and others who seek ambition.

Erendei’s job as The God of Desire is to bless every mortal with their own, unique power such as super speed for an Elf or Tranformation for a Mythrian. He is praised as one of the most important gods for all of Falavaze as he is the father of Life and Death since everyone either desires to live or die.

Erendei’s Amulet is his godly artifact that was kept safe and sound on Isle Amzei, the isle that no mortal can see. Many sailors and pirates tried to find the isle and none lived to tell the tale because they died of old age. The only way to find Isle Amzei is to find an ancient artifact located on a separate isle that guides you to it by showing it through Erendei’s lenses. In truth, that artifact is a way of looking through the eyes of a Falava.

To get Erendei’s Amulet, you’d need Erendei’s key, which he harbours himself and only gives to those who are worthy. Typically, he key is lost to the sea and Erendei reclaims it even though he is not allowed on the mortal plane (he’s trapped behind a gate).

The godly artifact was drawn by the ancient civilizations of The Submerged way back before The Shower of The Stars. It was also originally, a crown that donned Erendei’s head.

Erendei’s alignment is good and just. He is on the Motus side of the Aelus Spectrum.

## Appearance

Erendei’s appearance was said to douse any light with its own luminosity. The only brighter source is Aure, The Supreme.

Erendei’s hair was the first ever ember, resembling a blowtorch or bonfire which its flames were said to reach the great sky of Falavaze. He was essentially, the creation of warmth and fire, the father of all passions and talents.

Erendei’s attire is that of a tattered, crimson robe which is held up by a leather, diagonal belt. He wears dark brown pants and has ruby-red boots lied with topaz. He’s of a strong and mighty build, able to wield large weapons and still excel at combat with most of the other Falava.

His colour pallet is similar to one of The Seven Saviours as he mirrors them and their personality.

## Personality

Erendei is said to have been a feisty and passionate creator. His impulsive nature clashed with Hamaliel’s tame and restrictive views. It’s worth noting that he saw passion as the gateway to the soul and believed that it was the most important thing in all that was real and figuratively perceivable. As such, he was considered to be a very emotional god who disapproved of tradition and encouraged positive progress in the world like Emovere.

The God of Desire Outright *adored* the mortals that he and his Falava companions were involved with. While he didn’t create any, he was happy to bless them with otherworldly abilities to make life interesting, much to Hamaliel’s dismay as he wanted the Eru to be the superior race. He was shown to be benevolent and strong, having interfered with the mortal world significantly before he was sealed away by The God of The Black Heart/God of Corruption. But, because some desires are corrupted by greed, Erendei’s power is debatable for its moral standing.

However, underneath his impulsive and eccentric behaviour lies a desperate and poetic god. Erendei is often philosophical, especially when the occasional mortal attempts to search for his temple. He thinks that the tides are reflective of the nature of Falavaze, with war making them choppy and dangerous and tranquility making them still and peaceful. However, since that duty fell to Orochi, he rarely questioned The God of Harmony and his methods.

Another trait of Erendei’s is that he’s a doting father, doing his best to treat his children equally. With Azguel (Death) and Hyuzu (Life) both holding their own and having their own races, he was torn between which ones should be blessed with powers the most. Erendei also thinks less of his youngest son, Hyuzu due to his near-sadistic views on torturing his own creation for the enjoyment of watching them suffer. But while it might appear awful, Hyuzu claims to have only made them stronger and more resilient than any other species, though he does snicker at their expense.

With Erendei and Hyuzu butting heads on moralistic values, The God of Desire decided it would be best to just refrain from interfering with his son’s life, somewhat horrified with what his child had become due to years of constant praise from the mortals (as they fear death and want to live forever). He even refuses to say where Hyuzu’s artifact may be to one of The Seven Saviours to avoid causing a war behind the gate.

On the other hand, Erendei’s eccentricity is praised and embraced by Azguel, The God of Death. Azguel agrees with his father in saying that mortals don’t appreciate their lives enough as they should and that they should experience joy before he would meet with them. Azguel’s strong bond with his father placed him on the Motus side of the sacred Aelus Spectrum.

## Duties & Legends

Erendei’s sole purpose is to give people dreams, desires and ambitions so they can live for a reason. He gives rise to talent, purpose and hobbies, likes and dislikes. Erendei has shown to have distributed the powers based on the anatomy of the races, with Humarians (Hyuzu’s mortals) having the most because of their flexible and ‘blank’ structure.

* He blessed Mythrians with powers that revolve around Deception. Mainly because they could see things that other races could not (thermal energy), had horns or tails that could be used in lies and because of their slim makeup. these powers include: Transformation, Telekinesis, Teleportation and in rare cases, Transmutation. He also allowed them to copy any ability they wanted for 24 hours once every three days and made use of their skin, making it resistant to many weapons.
* He blessed Humarians with every other power that was on par with the races (meaning they couldn’t do anything outside of what a mortal should do). They had every power that the other races *didn’t have*.
* Amalians were given the corresponding power of the animal they represented.
* Calums were given powers that resolve around Calmness. This was because Azguel created them to bring light to the world and because they had a warm aura that people gravitated to. These powers include: Putting people to sleep, quill/feather manipulation, temporary duplication of inanimate objects and sound manipulation. These were created to sing lullabies to discontent souls, but the Calum race eventually turned sour.
* Eru were blessed with powers that revolved around intelligence or rationality. Basically, logic. Primarily because they were made in the vision of Hamaliel and because of how stubborn and traditionalistic they were. While traditional views are accepted, these people took it too far. These powers include: (Oddly enough) Emotional manipulation, Night Vision, Telepathy, Foresight and Constructing Plans Physically in Their Mind (only the user can see the hologram of their plan in front of them unless they see otherwise.)
* Elves are the contrasting race to the Eru race. Erendei decided that their powers should revolve around agility, strength and weaponry since Emovere’s spirit was unbreakable and sturdy like that of a blade. Essentially, Erendei gave them the most fight-accepted powers possible and gave them the opportunity to become unopposed knights, which blazed the path for their unfathomable, skilled army. These powers include: Super Speed, Increased Jumping, Control over Plant Life (though they cannot manipulate their life expectancy), Built-in Wings that were attached under their arms like a flying squirrel’s and Weapon Manipulation.
* Submerged were initially blessed with lights built into their eyes to attract prey in some cases, Hypnotizing, Breathing Underwater, Leeching Life from others with their fangs and Water Manipulation. However, they were wiped out by the Eru due to an ancient grudge.

All these powers held the realm of Falavaze to get because all uniqueness was celebrated far and wide, which pleased Orochi. But overtime, Erendei’s duties grew larger since some mortals were envious of others for their powers and abilities.

Erendei is primarily mentioned in legends regarding the sea because all pirates worship him. Erendei was rumoured to be unforgiving when his name was used in vain and as such, would sink ships to teach the one who did so and their friends a lesson.

## The Shower of Stars

Erendei fought alongside the other gods during the nightmarish event that was The Shower of Stars. He managed to manipulate the very essence of desire to use on his fellow gods to light a fire inside them to fight harder. Erendei was one of the front liners against Morsiya and her vile forces of darkness. He summoned ships of cosmic sizes with his minions inside of them to fire at her forces and was an effective addition to the forces of light.

## Godly Artifact

Erendei’s godly artifact is his sacred amulet, called “Erendei’s Amulet” and is drawn in tapestries by the Submerged.

## Erendei’s Amulet

* Pre-War
* Post-War

### Effects

Able to Manipulate Intensity of Desires, Change Desires When in the Right Hands.

## Aftermath

Erendei, unfortunately even after winning, was sealed away by The God of The Black Heart. His minions still carried out his word and directions, but the desires of Falavaze became more corrupted than before. Not only that but Erendei became very apathetic and depressed, having been deprived of a creation that he poured his heart into. He longs to be freed, which is why he always sends out his key to mortals who pay close attention. He wants his amulet to be found so he can be released and smile once again on the realm of Falavaze.
