Gods

The Gods (神) are divine beings that were initially created by the God of Creation. The first god known as the Creator appeared from a place known to no one. The Creator made all kinds of beings but also created the propensity of evil. His own mistake lead to the accidental creation of the other gods, where the bad gods led him to his own demise. The Creator was killed and began the age of many gods and many legends.

Legends
The gods created different kinds of minions in accordance with their nature. The gods were worshipped by their minions and would follow them into battle against other gods and their own minions. The battle between the gods was a catastrophe causing them to lose their body of flesh and leave this world's dimension in order to heal their wounds. This event made it difficult for either force to interfere with the world in any great away. However with enough faith and power they can perform miracles through the act of Benediction or even split their body from their own and manifest Echoes or Heralds, weaker versions of their divine selves into the world for guidance. An Echo is an attempt to project the power and mind of their selves into the nature of a person or fae with necessary distortions. Newly born Echoes tend, to varying degrees, to be infantile, emotional and rash. While a Herald is a step down from from the more powerful Echoes, they are used to communicate the will of the gods.
