New Gods

**Status** | Thriving

**New Gods** are a race of highly advanced sentient humanoids hailing from the planets of New Genesis and Apokolips. They are the children of the Old Gods, sharing similar aspects to the Olympians and the Titans.

## **Biology**

New Gods vary in terms of appearance. Though some do look identical to humans, others however, are easy to distinguish. They vary in terms of skin color, height, build and even powers.

### Powers

* **New God Physiology:** New Gods possess many of the same abilities to one another, but some are more powerful than others.
	+ **Immortality:** Every New God is born, but don't age like humans do, in fact it is highly likely they stop aging at a certain time and remain that way for centuries to come.
	+ **Superhuman Durability:** New Gods are known to possess a great amount of resilience to pain and injury, even more so than a human. Their durability usually depends on the New God, usually how much their body can take before they can't take anymore.
	+ **Superhuman Strength:** Much like their resilience, New Gods possess incalculable strength. This strength allows them to fight enemies with strength on par to their own as well as lift tons over their heads with ease. Again, their strength is dependent on each individual New God.

### Weaknesses

* **Radion:** Despite their individual strength and resilience, all New Gods possess a weakness to a rare element called Radion. The element is of an unknown origin, but possesses toxic effects to them in a reasonable amount or after being exposed to it following an explosion. Some New Gods can take 1-2 hits, depending on their resilience, armor or even use of their mother boxes.

## **Culture**

Though they are one species, New Gods live in two separate factions. Those of New Genesis are known to be allies of the Justice League, standing for peace, justice and freedom. The other faction are those of Apokolips, who subjugate, invade and are power hungry.

### Government

The government of New Genesis is an absolute monarchy, with a benevolent theocracy. The government of Apokolips however, is one of an absolute monarchy with a fascist and tyrannical theocracy.

### Technology

New Gods are known to be a highly advanced race of beings. They possess many devices, some of which vary in availability, depending on which faction one is apart.

* **Boom Tubes:** One of the most iconic of all the technologies both factions use comes in the form of the boom tube. This gives them the ability to transport themselves and even armies across great distances in a matter of seconds, as it is a point-point portal.
* **Mother & Father Box:** New God "Living Computer", a mother box is usually used by Genesisians, while the father box is used by Apokoliptians. These devices are used by New Gods for various different purposes. These include things like healing, teleportation via boom tubes, omniscience, omni-knowledge, etc.
