'''The Gods of Thalassa'''

Thalassa has a singular pantheon. All cultures and races know who the gods are even if they don’t worship them. The exact nature of any god is a matter of debate though.

In Kalogis, they talk of the sun god Helios, an honorable soldier who defends the realm of men from the creatures of darkness. He is associated with justice and the law. Far to the north though, is a land of ice and nights that stretch over a week, and they tell very different tales of their god, Skoll. He is a cruel and ruthless warrior, bloodthirsty and indifferent to any cries for mercy. The only law he follows is that of his own making: the weak serve the strong lest they be cut down.

Scholars and priests agree that these are the same being, but none know why the aspect of a god might change so drastically. While some churches that serve the same god are friendly, others are hostile toward one another, believing that the foreign aspect is corrupt or debased version of the true god.

'''Ethulia''' – A goddess of the wilderness, the hunt, and beasts. Often portrayed as an elven archer. The dark elves of Tixichopli say that she is the mothers of monsters and delights in bloody and horrific sacrifices done in her name.

'''Karameter''' – Goddess of agriculture. Her shrines are found throughout civilized lands, but she’s rarely a prominent figure. In the land of Ge, they hold that she’s the mother of all the gods and the earth itself is her body.

'''Helios''' – A warrior god associated with the sun. He’s portrayed as honorable and disciplined in the Twelve, but other cultures hold him as cunning and ruthless.

'''Ichotus''' – Lord of the forge who built arms and armaments for his siblings Helios and Ethulia. The dwarven clans revere him as Alakukahn, the Architect. They say he is the chief god and a master craftsman who built the heavens and earth, and all other gods are his servants.

'''Nómos''' – Goddess of the law and cities, responsible for striking down the Elysians. The Dun Mer say that she took the form of a black mare and seduced a water spirit named Vele, and from their union came the first humans.

'''Thanatos''' – The somber lord of the dead and one of the few remaining Titans. In the Kingdom of Shang, he is called King Yanlo, and cleanses souls before they are reincarnated.
