Deities

Gods (Goddesses when female), alternatively and very rarely referred to as deities, are extremely powerful, immortal beings that rule large portions of the Earth. Most gods are described as being part of a family or pantheon, and some of them rely on their mortal devotees for worship. Gods have an array of Powers and Abilities, typically related to a specific theme or aspect of mortal life, such as war, love, wisdom, or death. Contrary to popular belief or what is portrayed in various forms of media and mythology, deities cannot be killed/destroyed under any circumstances, rather they can only be weakened or imprisoned at best. Supposedly, not even The Reaper can kill a god.

Gods from different pantheons have differing abilities, power levels and behaviours. Olympians generally control fundamental aspects of the world, such as love and death, while the Asgardian and Sumerian gods have more localized portfolios but can control worldly aspects equal to the Olympians. Hindu gods are greatly entwined in the spiritual lives of their worshippers, while the Olympians respond to prayers on a case by case basis.
