Elder Gods
General Lore: The First born of the Sentient races, these individuals were empowered with divine abilities to safeguard worlds of the Primordial Gods or to help create the first generation of their races.
Cernunnos-The Horned Lord, God of Beasts, and Master of the Wild Hunt
Description: During his fall Cernunnos lost all seven pairs of his glorious wings, his skin was burnt from pale white to a ruddy brown color and a singular horn sprouted from his skull, a mutation due to cosmic radiation seeping into his body as he plummeted from his destroyed starship.
​
Abilities: Cernunnos can change into the shape of any of the creatures found on Tartarus except for a few of the largest most impressive species. He can also control beasts with weaker will than his own. Even for beasts he cannot control, Cernunnos can intuitively divine the weak points of such titanic creatures and ascertain their strengths and weaknesses with only a single glance.
​
Blessings: Cernunnos followers can transform into beasts they have formed deep connections with, they also can communicate and command beasts to varying degrees depending on their proficiency and internal pneuma.
​
Lore: Cernunnos was one of the Seraphim among the Adhene, one of the ascended Duine who managed to attain the highest status of divinity a mortal could achieve. This was not enough for him and he soon grew bored simply wandering the cosmos on a permanent patrol that rarely led to any type of fighting. Cernunnos tried to invade the garden world of Tír Tairngire and was nearly destroyed in the process. After falling to the world bereft of wings and forever altered, Cernunnos realized the depths of his hubris. He signed an accord with Maeve and Cailleach, agreeing to act as warden for a dark forest moon that would serve as a place of reform for wicked or lost souls that still had a chance to be redeemed.
Freyja-The Goddess of Plains, Snow, and Lightning
Description: Freyja was originally as pale as the rest of her kin, and regarded as one of the most beautiful maidens in the world of Tir Tairngire. After being seduced by Bodach her skin turned from pale to dark, her green eyes turned red and her yellow hair turned silver. Dressed in the tanned skin of dire wolf Freyja is always armed with the Dáinsleif, a black-metal sword imbued with the destructive power of Lightning.
​
Abilities: Freyja can bend lightning, thunder and snow to her whims and desires. She can summon thunder and lightning to blast her foes, spike of ice to pierce them or avalanches of snow to bury them. She can also twist the elements of snow, ice and Lightning to create new life forms in a similar way Maeve can do with plant life and water.
​
Blessings: Freyja’s followers can summon bolts of lightning, gales of wind and spikes of ice, they also can summon the healing properties of water to heal wounds.
​
Lore: Freyja was a beautiful Lutin who was destined to lead the forces of the second generation of Lutins in their war against the Korrigans. 200 years into her service as Field Marshal and Freyja grew weary of the constant bloodshed. Bodach appeared as a disguised Lutin and consoled the weary Freyja, she slept with him needing a distraction from the endless bloodshed and violence. After laying with Bodach her skin turned purple black and her eyes blood red. She was outcast and forsaken by her kin and Goddess and would have not been killed if Aeon had not stepped in to intervene. The Korrigans capitalized on the chaos and seized large tracts of Lutin land during this chaotic period. Aeon protected Freyja by establishing a new world where neither Bodach or Cailleach were allowed to trespass. Freyja created molds of snow before imbuing each with a spark of divine lightning, creating the first 100 of the Vanir race.
Gamayun-The Goddess of Language, Learning, and Magic
Description: As a korrigan, Aderyn, before taking on the moniker of Gamayun was a skinny, lithe specimen amongst the usually stout Korrigan race. She had a skinny frame and greying dark hair instead of the usual lustrous silver seen amongst the warriors and smiths of the race. After thousands of years of exposure to Cailleach's sun Gamayun's skin turned a darkening grey and her eyes changed from cherry red to a dark mauve color.
​
Abilities: Gamayun has no innate powers, all her powers were acquired through years of rigorous study. Some ranging from a few years, to decades and sometimes centuries. Immortality was bestowed accidentally to Gamayun during her transfer across the cosmos, her body absorbed fragments of the primordial cosmos forever changing her.
​
Blessings: Although immortal Gamayun rarely freely gives away her gift of arcane knowledge to those beseeching her. Gamayun does impart her knowledge of spoken languages to those seeking to avoid conflicts and those with peace and truth in their hearts. Practical knowledge is hoarded just as fiercely, for Gamayun does not desire for the growth of such prospective peoples to be solely dependent on her offerings and good will.
​
Lore: Like many other Korrigan who were slim bodied and deemed too weak to wield or forge weapons. Gamayun as the mortal Aderyn lived a life of harsh servitude with little to no grim rewards. She and her other kin of similar statures were forced to crawl inside the gears of great machines and clean their cogs or sweep away the piles of sulfurous ash that piled along the aisles of the great smithies held in each of the Korrigan cities. Aderyn began to unlock the hidden meaning in words and discovered the very first words of power. Aeon was intrigued by this discovery so he transported Aderyn and her kin to the remote barren moon of Lukomorye and shrouded it in permanent storms to dissuade Bodach from searching for its treacherous kin.
