This category enumerates the Gods that govern the Shard of Acrolon.

Overview

Gods of Acrolon (Enchiridian) are named for their category of creature (Gods) and the Shard that they rule over (Acrolon). Lore about the Gods of Acrolon is common and accurate. They are part of the history of Acrolon, and are well documented by scholars, Heralds, Servitors, and each other.

History

During the The Shattering, the original Gods of The Integrum were themselves shattered into the Shard Gods. The Shard Gods of Acrolon were:

  • Anyot: Shard God of Form. She was modelled after the mythical goddess Frigg. She is associated with hearth and creation.
  • Eir: Shard God of Day. She was modelled after the mythical goddess Eostre. She was associated with the dawn.
  • Fenrir: Shard God of Night. He was modelled after the mythical monster Fenrir. He was associated with ferocity and hunger.
  • Hael: Shard God of Autumn. She is modelled after the mythical goddess Hel. She is associated with death and the underworld.
  • Lokhar: Shard God of Destiny. He was modelled after the mythical god Loki. He was associated with trickery and cunning.
  • Skathi: Shard God of Winter. She was modelled after the mythical goddess Skadi. She was associated with cold and hunting.
  • Thyr: Shard God of Summer. He was modelled after the mythical gods Thor and Tyr. He was associated with courage, war, and skill in battle.
  • Wodhain: Shard God of Pattern. He was modelled after the mythical god Odin. He was associated with insight and arcane knowledge.
  • Ydalla: Shard God of Spring. She was modelled after the mythical goddess Idun. She was associated with youth and innocence.

Later in the Shattered Age there was a major war of the Gods of Acrolon, called The First Godswar, along the lines of the mythical Ragnarok. Most of the Shard Gods were killed in the war. The Founders appointed new Gods to maintain the Shard.

  • Aedifica took on the role of the God of Form after Anyot was killed in The First Godswar. She remains the God of Form in the present age. She is known for an incredible skill at craft and invention.
  • Cambion took on the role of the God of Pattern after Wodhain was killed in The First Godswar. He was known for revolutionary ideas.
  • Excrucius took on the role of the God of Night after Fenrir was killed in The First Godswar. He remains the God of Night in the present age. He is known for his cruelty and tyranny.
  • Lascivia took on the role of the God of Summer after Thyr was killed in The First Godswar. She was known for addiction and obsession.
  • Lucidus took on the role of the God of Day after Eir was killed in The First Godswar. He remains the God of Day in the present age. He is known for his beauty and uncompromising nature.
  • Umbrus took on the role of the God of Destiny after Lokhar is believed to have been killed in The First Godswar. He was known for an obsession with travel and discovery.
  • Nexia and Anastasia survived The First Godswar, but adopted new names as the dominant language of Acrolon shifted.

At the end of the Shattered Age, the Founders enlisted the help of powerful mortals to resolve The Carceri Incident. The reward for this assistance was the ascension of the first new Gods since The First Godswar. For Acrolon, this meant:

  • Suentius took on the role of the God of Pattern after Cambion was apparently killed in The Carceri Incident. He is known for a shred mind and persuasive friendliness. He remains the God of Pattern in the current age.
