Gods and goddesses of my Illytheros campaign! Most of these names are just bastardized Greek words; don't expect anything accurate to actual Greek mythology, haha.

ANTHERIOS TRICKSTER GOD OF MEN AND MORTALS. The first and only mortal to ascend to godhood. Shapeshifter and interloper; disliked by the other "trueborn" gods. Stole the spark of divinity from the other gods and dispersed it among the people of the world.

YNPHARIA GODDESS OF JUSTICE AND LAW. Was once a minor goddess of hearth and home before she was slain by her traitorous human lover and reborn in the ashes of her burned-down home.

HELIKE GODDESS OF REBIRTH AND CROSSROADS. Ynpharia’s only child; died during the burning of her home and hearth but was reborn. Goddess of rebirth and the in-between, liminal spaces.

KATO GOD OF CONQUEST AND WAR. Honorable, but hot-blooded and proud. Known to stir the spirits of even the least of creatures. Brother to Agapea.

GAIANOS GOD OF THE SEA. Many-scaled and shining, capricious yet life-giving. Has thousands of children, some even unknown to mortal men.

KYNITHAEA GODDESS OF THE HUNT AND HARVEST. Fair and nurturing. Often seen in art challenging Kato to friendly games.

PYRISMA, PASALLA, FALASSI GODDESS OF THE ARTS. Fickle and fleeting, but beautiful before all other goddesses. Pyrisma is the aspect of visual art, Pasalla is the aspect of music, and Falassi is the aspect of the written word.

CTHERION GOD OF THE END AND DEATH. He who presides over the end of all things. Grim and dutiful and feared by all. Husband of Arkeia.

ARKEIA GODDESS OF THE BEGINNING AND LIFE. Loving mistress who grants a beginning to all things. Gentle and kind and adored by all. Wife of Ctherion.

AGAPEA GODDESS OF LOVE AND SEX. With beauty to rival that of the goddesses of the arts. Patron of love, sex, and marriage. Sister to Kato.

MITHRAKNIS GODDESS OF MONSTERS. Self-impregnating monster goddess of unknown origin who lies secreted away in the depths of the world, ever-birthing monstrous creatures.

THONOS GOD OF POISONS AND MEDICINE. Dual-faced god of healing and harm. Popular among doctors and assassins alike.

STRATONITES GOD OF THE SUN AND SKY. King of the gods and god of the sun and the sky. The allfather, as expansive as the sky is vast. Husband of Selenoa.

APHOSYMA GOD/DESS OF FATE AND CHAOS. Multigendered god/dess. Decider of who will be controlled by the strings of fate and who will find the course of their lives simply up to chance.

SELENOA GODDESS OF MAGIC AND THE MOON. Queen of the gods and wife to Stratonites. Keeper of secrets, caster of spells, and she who makes the moon rise.

NEMOS GOD OF WINDS AND TRAVEL. Fickle and ever-changeable as the winds. He who guards sailors and travelers.

DEMYSEIA GODDESS OF CUNNING AND SECRETS. The goddess who favors those who use their minds to achieve their ends, and who keeps the secrets of those who confide in her.

MELOSIAS GOD OF WINE, CELEBRATION, AND GRIEF. He who makes the libations flow, who mourns and celebrates in equal measure.
