Gods

The **Gods** of Vraekeapia exist both as abstract concepts and as deities that are capable of influencing and manipulating the world around them. It is important to distinguish between religious practices and the deities themselves, as different religions may worship the same god. It is also important to distinguish minor spirits from gods, as while spirits are capable of influencing the physical world, gods are capable of doing so at a much greater scale.

## Overview

Gods have their own belief of how things are run; they need power. They get this power by spreading influence through, believers, animals, plants, diseases, tools, weapons and resources. This power is the same power that magic originates from, an invisible force that allows for those who have the ability to, use it.

They all live in a dimension full of ice and carved out and created their own home. They use their angels to fight wars in other dimensions. They also have the ability to teleport people into their dimension.

Despite their power, they are not all seeing, but they can see a lot. They search through the lives of mortals looking for a way to plant a seed to create a religious insurrection. They manage all of their races and society.

They often create special magical artifacts and items for their warriors and religious followers. They use priests and holy groups to help change their societies and they bless them with magic.

## Gods and Races

Every god has a race, or two or three to their name. Their relationship is kind of like young Pokemon trainers with their handful of favorite critters.

Gods can create all kinds of things, but their favourite thing to create is a sentient being; a race. Now we must distinguish between a race and an animal. Although they have similar effects, races are like gods; they always have a free will of some kind, they are mortal, they can think and believe things that are out of perception.

Gods have angels. In their respective dimensions, they work with angels. One of the theories is that these angels fight in wars with each other on behalf of their gods. Angels don’t have free will until they are made a race. Why would you make them a race? Well no one exactly knows, but the thought is that it’s easier to work with a society that doesn’t need you babysitting it.

When an angel is turned into a race it’s too powerful, it causes a special effect that resonates through the dimensions and the entirety of Vraekeapia. When this event happens, a weaker race will be born. Humans are lesser to angels but have less restrictions and they are not as faithful, as surprising as that sounds, having less morals and more greed helps forward this race, for the want of a human outweighs the powers of an angel.

## Humans

Humans are a group of beings characterised by a shared spirit and passion, it doesn’t really matter if Kungzaos look nothing like humans, they share the same psychology and are born from a stronger angel race.

## Other Beings

From Mushruls to clay to plants, these are all their own unique race. They have a much different biology and mind compared to other races. While Chlorophyllians are unknown in origin and possibly not made by a god, we can’t really talk about them with gods in mind.

## Linites

Linites are a group of people made out of clay, made by their god. These people are different, because they aren’t made out of flesh and blood. Linites are spread around the world and most are uninterested in religion, as they prefer politics.

## Mushruls

Mushruls are made by the god Skvjord. Multiple of these are spread around the world of Vraekeapia, partially because that’s how the god placed them and because of their ability to spread quickly.

## Powers of Gods

magic is intertwined with all godlike status

gods as they grow into power and influence have less time to spare, meaning actions are more immediate and important.

the end to the beginning, all gods start as a spirit, spirits are mortal but don’t assume the logically bound body of any mortal. Most spirits are from beings who have been touched by a magical source to the point where they ascend, upon ascending they will be put in the icy dimension home to all gods, and will be hunted, they will be hunted by sub-gods and endo-gods and gods, or just their minions. Upon surviving this being will be set back to where they came from, their bodies now augmented and changed upon their mind and power. Spirits can tap into magical powers as if they were a priest. They have much more power and much more knowledge, vision and can complete powerful god like actions.

sub-gods

theres a point in which the influence of a spirit moves them to a sub god. A reminder that ascending is completely optional, if one decides not to ascend they can stay at the status they are but with much more power, power that grows. Sub-gods are weaker gods, they have surprisingly lower powers but can bolster this. They fight across the dimensions. One largly held Idea is that these other dimensions are more magical easier to mould and change dimensions that often have a affect on the magical pool in vraekeapia.

endo-gods

endo-gods are basically as powerful as a normal gods but have limitations. All endo gods live in a giant tavern in the icy god dimension, this is where they have their first taste of immunity, they can’t be killed until their power is actively all depleted. The endo gods have their own armies of angels. They war across the dimensions but also can influence the lands of vraekeapia with blessings and magical artifacts. Endo-gods can kill sub-gods freely.

gods/whole gods

these gods have all power, they can live in their own carved out homes and can kill lesser gods, endo-gods and sub-gods. They are characterised by their ability to spawn races and give blessings, powers, magic and can make spirits. They also have to fight across the dimensions
