Estarra, the Eternal, is the Supreme Creatrix of the multiverse, the product of the merging of Dynara, Magnora, and the Nameless Son of Yudhe. The totality of creation is the result of Her creative will. Yet She remains ever aloof and distant from the concerns and tribulations of mortals and gods alike, and Her will is ever unknowable.
'''Divine''' beings are ageless entities with powers to shape and reshape [[Lusternia]]n reality far beyond the means of mortals, who are (with the exception of [[human]]s) themselves [[Splintering|shards of gods]]. Many divinities source their power from the [[immanidivinus]] or [[excoroperditio]] energies.

'''Soulless Gods''': Even Estarra, with all Her power and presence, cannot defeat the ancient Soulless Gods without destroying all worlds, so they represent a constant, underlying threat to the fabric of creation. However, so long as they remain bound by the Nine Seals, the threat of the Soulless is abated.
===Soulless Gods===
Even [[Estarra]], with all Her power and presence, cannot defeat the ancient [[Soulless God]]s without destroying all worlds, so they represent a constant, underlying threat to the fabric of creation. However, so long as they remain bound by the [[Nine Seals]], the threat of the Soulless is abated.


'''Elder Gods''': Having come into being at the time before time, the Elder Gods represent powerful forces in their own right. However, they could not stand against the Soulless Gods and were either consumed, fragmented their beings into the mortal races, or fled the known realms. This was known as the Elder Wars. With the Coming of Estarra, the Elder Gods are slowly returning.
===Elder Gods===
Having come into being at the time before time, the [[Elder God]]s represent powerful forces in their own right. However, they could not stand against the Soulless Gods and were either consumed, [[Splintering|fragmented their beings]] into the [[Races|mortal races]], or fled the known realms. This was known as the [[Elder Wars]]. With the [[Coming of Estarra]], the Elder Gods are slowly returning.


'''Vernal Gods''': Where the Elder Gods were defeated against the Soulless, the mortals were born from the fragmentation of a few Elder Gods. The mortal races carried on this war and created great nexuses of power from which they were able to raise their own to great power. These were the Vernal Gods. Eventually, the Vernal Gods were able to trap the Soulless behind Nine Seals, though they had to sacrifice themselves to do so.
===Vernal Gods===
Where the Elder Gods were defeated against the Soulless, the mortals were born from the fragmentation of a few Elder Gods. The [[Races|mortal races]] carried on this war and created great [[Nexus of Power|nexuses of power]] from which they were able to raise their own to great power. These were the [[Vernal God]]s. Eventually, the Vernal Gods were able to trap the Soulless behind [[Nine Seals]], though they had to [[Fusing|sacrifice themselves to do so]].


'''Ascended Gods''': From events that transpired in the year 188 CE, which created the [[Threshold Abyss]], ascendency is no longer possible by Mortals. Though from the events that transpired, the Domoths were revealed, and it was made possible for a mortal to ascend and pass through a Domoth and become an Ascendant by the Veil of the Domoth they passed through. The last known Ascended God was Ayridion whom, from his sacrifice that created the Threshold Abyss, later became Ilyarin, an Ascendant of the Domotheos of Life.
The path to Vernal Godhood is now closed, sealed by Ayridion, of the White Flame, who sacrificed His divinity to tear a gulf between the Divine Realms of the [[Domoth]] and [[Immanidivinus]], and in so doing saved the [[Basin]] from the evil which afflicted it. (See {{News|Events|101}})
 
Though the path to Vernal Divinity cannot be trod, mortals may still rise as [[Vernal Ascendant]]s. Utilising vast reserves of power, Cities and Communes may channel their Nexi upon chosen mortals, raising them to the quasi god-hood of Ascension.
 
===Ascended Gods===
Once every generation, the [[Nine Seals]] which imprison [[Kethuru|Almighty Kethuru]], greatest of the Soulless Gods, must be renewed by the essence and power of a mortal - for it was mortals who first imprisoned the Great Old One. The power of this renewal was once such that he who wielded it could rise as an '''Ascended God'''. The first and last mortal to ascend in this manner was Soll Peulus, who became the God [[Ayridion]]. However, by Ayridion's actions, this way was forever barred. Those who follow his path rise now as [[True Ascendant]]s.

Divine beings are ageless entities with powers to shape and reshape Lusternian reality far beyond the means of mortals, who are (with the exception of humans) themselves shards of gods. Many divinities source their power from the immanidivinus or excoroperditio energies.

Kinds of Deities

Soulless Gods

Even Estarra, with all Her power and presence, cannot defeat the ancient Soulless Gods without destroying all worlds, so they represent a constant, underlying threat to the fabric of creation. However, so long as they remain bound by the Nine Seals, the threat of the Soulless is abated.

Elder Gods

Having come into being at the time before time, the Elder Gods represent powerful forces in their own right. However, they could not stand against the Soulless Gods and were either consumed, fragmented their beings into the mortal races, or fled the known realms. This was known as the Elder Wars. With the Coming of Estarra, the Elder Gods are slowly returning.

Vernal Gods

Where the Elder Gods were defeated against the Soulless, the mortals were born from the fragmentation of a few Elder Gods. The mortal races carried on this war and created great nexuses of power from which they were able to raise their own to great power. These were the Vernal Gods. Eventually, the Vernal Gods were able to trap the Soulless behind Nine Seals, though they had to sacrifice themselves to do so.

The path to Vernal Godhood is now closed, sealed by Ayridion, of the White Flame, who sacrificed His divinity to tear a gulf between the Divine Realms of the Domoth and Immanidivinus, and in so doing saved the Basin from the evil which afflicted it. (See Events #101)

Though the path to Vernal Divinity cannot be trod, mortals may still rise as Vernal Ascendants. Utilising vast reserves of power, Cities and Communes may channel their Nexi upon chosen mortals, raising them to the quasi god-hood of Ascension.

Ascended Gods

Once every generation, the Nine Seals which imprison Almighty Kethuru, greatest of the Soulless Gods, must be renewed by the essence and power of a mortal - for it was mortals who first imprisoned the Great Old One. The power of this renewal was once such that he who wielded it could rise as an Ascended God. The first and last mortal to ascend in this manner was Soll Peulus, who became the God Ayridion. However, by Ayridion's actions, this way was forever barred. Those who follow his path rise now as True Ascendants.
