Gykallis

* Human Form
* True Form

*"The creatures of this world are my children, and I'll do anything to protect them"*

## Background

Gykallis was created after Aukallus split himself in two, so that they could manage The Oasis more efficiently. Gykallis was designated to rule over The Overworld and manage body/vessel creation for all of the souls and essences. The Overworld was Gykallis pride and joy, and all of the creatures that lived in it he viewed as his children. This is why when Gykallis had spotted Au’ora leading a creature's soul to The Void, he was furious.

Gykallis fought Au’ora for eons to keep control over The Overworld. Gykallis prevented anything on the Overworld from dying, by a combination of reversing time, and putting souls back into the bodies of those who died. If he is unable to do this, he lets the fallen creature in question carry on as a spirit, but never allows them to return to The Void. This is of course to the dismay of Au’ora, the Goddess of Souls.

Gykallis is aware of The Radiant Council (and later McEco), and up until Zak became Au'ora's champion, refused to collaborate with them because of Juniper's twisted ideals. Gykallis went so far as to leaving the cult members spirits unrevived, and even killing cult members he found on sight in an attempt to make them stop their activities. Unfortunately, the creation of The Archway had foiled this plan.

After the War of The Gods, Gykallis has stopped trying to hide away as much from the residents of Farcombe, partially because he has much more free time on his hands, and partially because he feels well acquainted with everyone enough to casually speak to them like friends. He still has control over the Overworld, but he is no longer spending his time putting souls back into their bodies. In light of all of this free time, he ran off to Regular Mexico for a short vacation.

Gykallis made a brief appearance at Slimey's house to have tea and agree to help the group kill Xal'gyron. Gykallis was also present during the events of ANATHEMA because of this agreement.

## Appearance

Gykallis’s most common form takes the form of a deer, and occasionally a centaur. However, they are capable of transforming their appearance to be of any organism that resides in the Overworld. They can also change their size, ranging from the smallest of bacteria, to literally holding the actual sun in the middle of their horns. Gykallis must always have at least a piece of the sun on them, no matter how small.

He also has his true form, which is mostly made of soft, yellow light, and possesses Aukallus's Clock of Time. He also has a purple halo around his head in this particular form.

## Personality

Gykallis is known to be respectable and honorable, and just all around polite. He is willing to give out a fair fight to those who ask for one, and knows when to accept defeat. Gykallis is quite caring towards the creatures of The Overworld and views all of them as his own children. However, he can also be very casual with the residents of Farcombe, and will sometimes participate in activities they set up if they invite him. Even when he is being casual however, his manner of speaking is still formal and regal.

## Abilities

Gykallis had the ability to manipulate time itself, and unlike Juniper, he can use as far back, or as far forward as he wants. This power got taken away from him by Aukallus since they now manage time in The Oasis.

Gykallis can create organic bodies/vessles for souls and essences, since that was their entire purpose of being created. The piece of the sun they always have on their person makes plant life around them rapidly grow. He can also create masses out land out of plant matter where ever he pleases, which was seen in Finale Part II. Because of the range of control that Gykallis has over the Overworld, they are able to be anywhere at anytime, as long as there's some sort of life in the area. This makes it exceptionally easy for them to put the souls of deceased creatures back into their bodies. They can also commune to any and all life forms from the Overworld.

## Essence of Life

Gykallis possesses The Essence of Life, which gives him the ability to create organic bodies for souls to inhabit. These organic vessels can literally be anything from plants to animals, and this ability is entirely unique to him. It also allows him to bind one's soul and essence into a vessel so that they will stay within the body. He used to manually do this for every single entity he ever created. This is also one half to the Heart of Aukallus.

This essence also allows Gykallis to wield the entire sun in-between his horns, though he only takes a little bit of it usually. The sun can be used as a weapon to instantly evaporate someone's body, though he has only ever done this on Juniper and her cult members.
