Shard

A Shard is one of the big fragments of a Godshard. Since a Shard comes from a Godshard, it also has the ability to convert pure energy though into limited things. Each Shard represents a different aspect of its Godshard, thus the thing it is able to create is limited to things within that aspect. The vessels that use and fuse with a Shard is called a god (lower case G).

## GODS

Gods (lower case G) are vessels of Shards. Whileas the God influences the Godshard, the Shards influence the gods - changing their entire Record and altering it to fit the aspect of the Shard. Vessels of Shards can range from mortals to immortals or fragments of the God themselves. A God can be killed, but a Shard can never be destroyed (it can only be splintered into tiny bits until it feels destroyed - but truth is it cannot be destroyed). This gives the possibility of reforming a Godshard.

A god is limited to only being able to create certain things within the aspect of that Shard, and is even more limited when granted fragments of Shards. A god's powers and influence are bounded within the universe that their Godshard came from (unless it's "destroyed"),

### KNOWN GODS

#### Valirian Universe

##### QUA'RI

The Qua'ris are primordial elemental gods created by Illordiryn. They embody the physical nature of things, and helped Illordiryn in crafting the physical landscapes of different worlds and such. They are the first in Illordiryn's Universe to be granted their own Shards. They are incredibly neutral gods, and only follow their laws of natures and the aspects of their Shards.

After the First Age, they returned to their planes and went into a deep slumber.

##### ARNAI

The Arnais are gods created to embody the aspects of the inhabitants in Valirian Universe. They originally are only granted limited power from Illordiryn to do specific tasks, not being allowed Shards and planes. But after the First Age and came the Wars of Powers, the Arnais became their own independent thing and had their fair share of Shards and Shard fragments.

#### TBR UNIVERSE 3

##### ELEMENTAL

The Elementals in the Avian System are primordial beings that were vessels carrying Shard fragments of their respective domain/terrain: forest, mountain, ocean, air, and desert. They later lost in the War of Commencement against the Avian gods; their material forms were disembodied and scattered around Aderyna, and their cognitive and spiritual forms were fused and banished to Undirheim.

##### AVIAN GOD

The Avian gods are a group of bird-like gods. They come from many worlds and fleed from an ongoing war in TBR Universe 3, making them war refugees and escaping from their worlds. They joined together, led by the Sun god Theruee Votous who's in the possession of a sun Shard, flew together in an event called the Migration to find a new home. They came across Aderyna, and fought the Elementals for the planet. Each god as their fair share of Shard fragments gotten from the Elementals respective to their domains.

After winning, they created the Avians - intelligent humanoid bird creatures with diverse cultures and understanding of their rich and floral planet. The Avian gods saw the start of civilization and the Age of Birdkind, and witnessed its development. Then came a war in which the Avian Gods were split into two side: the Prime gods and the Traitor gods. They fought and there were a lot of casualties and sacrifices, but the Prime gods won and banished the Traitor gods to their cells in Undirheim. Then rushed in the Age of Recollection, where new Avian gods arose and replaced the empty seats of those who were dead or had betrayed Birdkind.
