Apexins

## Summary

A race of transcendent lifeforms originating from a cosmic force called ether, they can adopt any form they desire; either looking humanoid, animal-like or completely abstract. Their divinity grants unfathomable levels of strength, speed, endurance and dominion over various aspects of reality; they also possess immortality, due to their incorporeal nature. Abiding by certain laws, they use their powers to watch over and keep balance across the multiverse; governing the worlds of the living and the dead. Depending on their powers and abilities, apexins will be ranked accordingly and given certain responsibilities to fulfill.

### Arret

First, are the **arrets**, the lowest ranking apexins in the universe; these are elemental gods who have jurisdiction over individual planets. With dominion over various elemental forces, they are responsible for shaping the world as well as the creation and development of the lifeforms that live on it. Generally, up to 8 gods can share a planet; dividing it into numerous regions that each god is responsible for. One of these deities, generally the oldest or most powerful of them, oversees the activities of the mortals and gods; and after a certain amount of time has passed, they will report these events to their superiors. The mosoc in charge of their sector.

### Mosoc

   Above the arrets are the **mosocs**, these gods govern the cosmos; watching over the solar system or galaxy under their jurisdiction. They are cosmic entities with dominion over numerous celestial bodies and cosmic phenomena. Mosocs are generally responsible for maintaining stars, and by extension solar systems, for a period of time; they manage their sector's divinity, directing them in accordance to the wills of the higher-ups. Similar to their planet-bound counterparts, they must also report progression to their superiors.

### Abstar

Finally, the highest ranking gods in all of creation, the **abstars**. These are more abstract deities with dominion over things like love, hate, creation, destruction and so on; while lower ranking apexins only govern the physical worlds, abstars are charged with the physical and the spiritual; keeping balance between the two. They accomplish this through their varied powers and abilities. For example: Cretta, a creator god, brings planets and stars into existence so that the lower gods can create and support life with them. Kai is then responsible for destroying them; when mortals die, their souls are collected by Grim and his followers.
