Godshard

A Godshard one of the type of products that the Shattered One shattered into. A Godshard is an incredibly, if not the most, powerful tool in the entire Clusterverse, and is the only thing in the entire Clusterverse that grants the ability to manipulate pure energy and convert it into anything.

Godshards, when splintered, turn into Shards. Shards embody the different aspect of a Godshard - granting a limited power of creation to the vessel that holds the Shard. The Shard vessels become gods (non-capital G), and they are bounded within the same universe as their creator unless it's destroyed.

## GODS

The vessels who bore Godshards are called Gods (capital G). Gods are the vessels of Godshards. All Gods were once humans, and they were the first humans created during the First Shattering. The number of Godshards, as seen so far, hasn't increased and has only decreased - and same goes to the number of universes. A God is bounded to their universe, and is allowed to control the laws within their domain as long as they're under the general laws of the Clusterverse.

Theoretically, it is possible for a Godshard to be formed when combining Shards; but no attempts has been made yet as many Shards are destroyed thus any attempts at reforming a Godshard becomes impossible. A Godshard has the ability to create multiple universes and affect other Godshards' creations, but the God isn't able to as the moment they create a universe, they are bound to it and unable to create another outside of their domain.

### KNOWN GODS

#### THYRITHEA & YUVELIV

Thyrithea and Yuveliv were the creators of the Nénarion Universe, and both were vessels of two separate Godshards and agreed to share/create the same Universe. Thyrithea came from the planet Rithyke and Yuveliv came from the planet Livenia. They later met as Gods and agreed to create a Universe together, building off each other's works and creating a magic-rich universe.

#### ILLORDIRYN

Illordiryn is the creator of Valirian Universe, and abandoning the whole Universe at the end of the First Age. He came from the one of the first planets Ceira. It is unknown if Illordiryn is still alive or not, but mainstream beliefs generally regard him as being dead. However, some worldhoppers still suspect his death as it's not possible for his throne to contain a whole Godshard if Illordiryn was the vessel.

#### THE FARSEEKER

The Farseeker is the main alias of the God which created the Faring Universe. She came from the planet Vellilea later became a worldhopper and travelled for the knowledge of it. She later came into the possession of a Godshard, but she used it Godshard in order to explore the vast universes around her - unaware of its limitations until she was trapped in her own Universe.

She created her worlds to reflect the things she discovered in other universes and taking the things she liked and building onto it. But after some time, after being trapped for so long, she decided to voluntarily split herself (committing suicide) and gave those Shards to her trusted servants. They formed a pact and promise to not intervene with each other's worlds, and then moved to their respective lands.

#### CAEKYRIA

Caekyria is the creator of the Phyrian Universe as a self-inflincted punishment. He came from the planet Livenia. Caekyria sought power and his own domain, and he sacrificed many things including Livenia, which got him into the possession of a Godshard. He became God of his own sandbox, and only realized that when it was too late. He became frustrated by his inability to leave his universe, and out of that wrath and torment, he destroyed himself into Shards that represented wrath, lust for power, greed, and immense curiosity for freedom and knowledge.

## HISTORY

Godshards are one of the products created from the First Shattering. Godshards represents the power of creation and destruction through manipulating pure energy of the Shattered One. Then gradually, all Godshards are collected and used by humans, turning them into vessels called Gods (capital G). The vessels fused with the Shards in all forms. With the power of creation itself, the Gods created the many worlds within that universe. However, the vessels are bounded within that universe and unable to create any other universe outside it. Thus they are trapped within their own prison of their creations.

After some time, some Gods died through many means. Upon death, all forms of the vessel split - splitting along the Godshard. These created Shards - resembling different aspect of that God. These Shards are limited to their aspect's powers, and can only create/tinker with a limited amount of stuff.
