Five Gods

Overview
When the Allfather made Viridia, He laid five eggs to hatch and watch over the planet. They exist to govern over a certain aspect of reality and collectively possess power on par with the Allfather himself. On this planet the Gods were born in sequence, the first to be born being Arai, followed by Derz, Mirah, Lycha and finally, Volkan. They are born from within the crust of the planet, fully-grown and having a basic understanding of communication, though they don't all necessarily begin with the understanding of speech.

Arai
The Aspect of Power and ruler of elemental fire. She was born first out of the Five Gods and watched over all her siblings as they crawled from the primordial Viridia. Founder of Araiism, the Queen of Flames is worshipped by many who are in the military or practice swordsmanship, but mostly the Corrupted as in modern times she is seen as a sort of figurehead for evil. (Kind of like Satan, but a little different.)

Derz
The Aspect of Wisdom and ruler of the four winds. He was next to hatch after Arai and founded the Keepers as soon as sentient life was born. During the Conflict with Arai he was gravely wounded and now sits atop the World Tree, where Mirah brought up the continent of Ahraan. He is know as the King of the Sands and is worshipped by all who value knowledge and intelligence.

Mirah
The Aspect of Life and ruler of the deep, Queen Mirah is the third child of the Allfather and gave all the water on the planet today by way of her mournful tears. She inadvertently helped to created the Werewolves of the planet and seeded the planet with life along with her brother, Derz. She was slain in the first war and has been reincarnated as Ginko.

Lycha
The Aspect of Chaos, Lycha is responsible for creating the Lycha Virus and has command over time. Usually taking the form of a gigantic, rocky beast, Lycha spends his days sleeping in the core of the planet, far, far away from any sentient life or his fellow gods.

Volkan
The Aspect of Death and the only God with a connection to the Beta Wavelength of the Void, The King of Thorns was the last God to be born and is frequently between resurrections. He is violently in love with his sister, Arai, willing to upset the natural order just to appease her and was last killed a number of centuries after the First War.
