The Divine Hierarchy.
-The Three: The three entities which according to Zatolen are Creation, Existence, and Death they seem to appear as nothing more than three books. They are the absolute divine power of Ithia but seem to be mostly inactive. It is believed these entities merely seek entertainment for their eternal existence.
-The Overgod: The Overgod the supreme power given the authority of the Three. The Overgod is the last soul still standing in the plane when all other life ends. The winner of the last Cycle. This Cycle’s Overgod maintains anonymity allowing the lower forces to have the attention of the mortal masses.
-The Forces: The Forces are personified forces of Ithian nature and while beneath the Overgod are not affected by his power and are True Gods meaning no force can kill them. They include Fate, Narrative, Comedy, Drama, Tragedy, Romance, Exposition, and Mystery.
-The Creator Gods: The Gods that were formed at the creation of this Cycle including Talcor, The True Mother, Siger’Alst, Talcor, Dreous, and Septriss. These gods are, mostly, inherently more powerful than their children.
-The Fates and Seir’Ald: Most of the Gods fall into these two groups being the bloodline of either Talcor or Siger’Alst. They are powerful entities who embody domains that make up Ithia.
-The Fae Court: The Fae Courts led by the High Queen Viilnor, Fae Queens, Princesses, Princes, Lords, Ladies, and Huntmasters are True Gods meaning no force can kill them. They embody natural things, the nature of beings, and wild places.
-The Planar Gods: These are the Gods of the Conceptual Planes, Fury Planes, and other connected planes often beings that are created ideals of a mortal, creatures formed by energy sources, and the pallet of world building of the Elementals. They are powerful entities but have little influence over the mortal world.
-Nature Spirits: While part of the Fae the Nature Spirits are not True Gods. They embody specific places, trees, and local ideas such as the decay of a specific area. They are powerful but only locally. The most powerful of these spirits include the Ash that rules over Talis’Vrok and the spirits of the Dodicerous Volcanoes worshipped by the Vigint and fed on their faith.
-Demi-Gods: Demi-gods have little divine power but are often powerful creatures. A Demi-god is a creature created by a singular God such as the Dragons, Cyclops, Titans, and Zalrend or the children of a God and a mortal.
-The Coelestis Exercitus: Are the personal creations of the Gods to serve them in the heavens. Sometimes formed from the souls of fallen mortals or pieces of a God’s minds, personalities, or domain manifested into being. They serve the wills of their creator God and help keep the world functioning. The primary difference in the creation of a Coelestis from a Demi-God is the purpose one is the creation of a child the other a servant or property.
