Selenarion, Scalekeeper

Called the Scalekeeper, the Formless Force of Fairness, or the Rightmaker, Selenarion is an androgynous, formless energy that does it's best to keep the universe in balance. Like it's followers, it understands that this mission is doomed to fail for eternity, yet it still works in pursuit of both literal and spiritual equilibrium for all things.

It's followers, called, Weights, Measures, or occasionally Selenarionites, dedicate themselves to seeing both sides of an argument, not as an excuse to remain neutral, but to take the side they feel is the most fair.

Selenarion does not contribute to any Creations, opting to let it's peers create the creatures they want without it's influence, for reasons not fully understood.

Elster, the Eye that Finds

Referred to as the Magpie, V, or the Eye that Finds, Elster is a avianlike being of short stature who represents foresight, council, and of course, birds, a species she brought into existence with the help of her sister goddess, Nachtpirscher, back before they became enemies. The source of said emnity being Nachtpirscher creating the Manngeiers with L'mau, terrifying facsimiles of Elster's beloved birds, created with the intent to sow fear and chaos.

Her followers, referred to as Seers, the Feathered, or Elsterites, are often oracles, strategists, advisors to leaders, or even leaders themselves, and many of them are Manngeiers, worshiping Elster specifically to get back at their creator. While they share their goddess's hatred for Nachtpirscher and actively seek the destruction of her followers, they are mostly apathetic towards L'mau, most likely because his intervention saved the Manngeiers from their primary creator's cruel machinations, and by extension, many of the world's heroes, leaders, and legends.

Elster's Creations are effectively unknown, with the only certainty being that she definitely contributed to the first species of bird, and definitely didn't contribute to the Manngeiers.

Barly, Discovery's Genesis

Known by a swath of names, including (but certainly not limited to) the Spark, Discovery's Genesis, or the Blue Lense, Barly is a shifting form of energy and appearance, often appearing to it's followers as whoever they think the most knowledgeable person they've ever known is, but wearing thick blue glasses that crackle with electricity, which represents Learning, Teaching, and Creating.

It's followers, referred to as Learners, Blue Guides, or Barlyites, are often researchers, teachers, trainers, artists, and inventors of all variety. Much like their god, they often bring about new or old knowledge that might've been better left unknown, and also much like their god, many would rather further knowledge at any cost than intentionally reobfuscate it.

Barly has a controversial Creations history, with the Storm Children all but confirmed, but the Slinowar (A lineage that many consider to have been created without care) heavily suspected of being it's doing as well.

Nachtpirscher, the Great Terror

When she is spoken of, it is only ever in whispers, and only ever in the single title she accepts; the Great Terror. Dedicated to Nightmares, Fear, and Despair, Nachtpirscher's only goal it to sow as much sorrow as possible. She knows that she is hated, that when people speak of her, others recoil, and she loves it.

Her followers, referred to exclusively as Shadewalkers, often worship her in pursuit of personal power, because of alien worldviews, or in the foolish assumption that she wouldn't prey on her own followers. She doesn't mind and isn't picky when it comes to followers, due to the fact that her followers are often the targets of Elsterite aggression and thus in short supply at all times.

Nachtpirscher's known creations amount to little more than the first species of Bird and Manngeiers, though one can look upon many of the foul monstrosities out in the wilds and reasonably assume that their creation was less godless than initially thought.
