Divine Races
Legend
“Born in the Void and at the Astral long before our World sprang into existence, these six races are those who shaped, groomed, and still manipulate all other races.“
“The only thing they fear is dissolving into astral fragments once more.”
Description

As they are immortal they have no real understanding or mortal haste. Their ability to shapshift and draw upon almost limitless amounts of astral, void, and worldly energies, also makes it hard for them to understand the feeling of mortal despair.
As they can do exactly what they set out to do, they have little entertainment and as such they at times allow mortals to test their luck, or should I say faith, and duel them ‘to the knee’.
“It wanted to span the gap, but its fellow stream would not- thus it roared in rage.”
Skjald Vinotis
History
It is unclear whether it’s the Sarcian, Stoicheian or Wickeryadi from The Void or the Astral pair of Boriac and Vornir being the older of the lot. But both pairs are the shapers and tenders of all things existing, thus they are called the elder divines.
Whereas Gods are called the younger divines, and are due to their ‘birth’ the more whimsical lot of them all. Where the others seemingly work on a strategic level, the gods act on a tactical or more operational level, to further their own agenda or position them better among their kind.
The Boriac revealed that gods are manifestations of praise and thoughts, from mortal races streaming back into the astral and touching raw, unbound swirling energies of equally aligned Aura Colour.
“They prefer attention to either themselves or their work.”
Skjald Ulrich
Organisation
The divines are organised in different ways. Gods live in a very strict hierarchy of 8 aura colours, with 1 major, 1 contender, and numerous lessers in each colour realm.
Boriac, Vornir, Stoicheian, and Wickeryadii are also grouped, yet they have no leaders or lesser, they merely exist.
“Seemingly they are but conduits of astral and void energies.”
Skjald Yell'a'Beard
Special
If divines cease to exist it has no influence on their creations.
“When they in the cataclysm dissolved in numbers, none felt a thing..”
