Gods

## Divine Gods

The Gods origin is unknown, other than that the Weave predates them (which is probably very obscure knowledge). Sva exists on the side of the Weave with Terra, and the rest exist in the Divine Realm on the other side. The Gods on the non-Terra side of the Weave created several worlds by "painting" them with the Weave. Sva populated the worlds as a reflection of the worlds themselves (so demons were made because their world is a shithole). Terra is theorized to be their favorite world, and gets the most attention. Sva forbids the Gods from affecting the lives of the mortal realms unless they request it via prayer.

The Gods offer assistance to anyone who they admire or seem worthy. Their pantheons are very flexible and their followers accept their "truths" in many different ways. For example, one church of the Knowledg God might be overprotective of knowledge by sealing up a library and protecting it at all costs, while another church might be more protective in the lives of the church followers. Both of equally valid in that god's eyes.

## Minor Gods / Patrons

As described in the Multiverse page, it is possible for powerful spellcasters to make their own dimension (on either side of the Weave). If they're on the other side of the Weave, it is difficult to return but they're essentially Gods in the sense that they can influence worlds on the other side of Weave. As a limit to their power, they can only influence things they or their minions are familiar with. For example, a Patron is able to influence someone carrying a trinket previously owned by them, or create magical effects with the assistance of a follower (i.e. a Warlock). More powerful Patrons have a wider view of the world, but none are as powerful as the Divine Gods (they are also technically under this limitation, but they created Terra and other worlds so their reach is far larger than minor Gods).

If someone in-universe ever mentions a God that isn't in the Divine Gods above, it's either a distorted image of a Divine God (Knowledge God seems to take multiple interpretations) or a Patron. Patrons aren't always evil or have ill-intentions, but it is generally in their best interest to spread their influence.

Some Patrons are older than others and have long-standing traditions following them, which makes them seem more inline with what we expect from a traditional God. For example, a God of Orcs could be a Orc from thousands of years ago that has their own realm on the other side of the Weave. Some Orcs are very traditional and may have ceremonies that have been passed down from those thousands of years ago when that Orc existed.
