Cardsmith Mythos
This is not strictly a Saga as far as the contest type goes, but it is story oriented and I want participation for some parts. For a summer course I am taking, I was asked to write a myth that attributed some group to some divine help in its formation. I wrote a myth about this community (obviously, I have no life). But I want to further expand the Pantheon.
I want to write more myths in a pseudo-history format of the site. I want people to tell me what they would be; god(dess), demon, or demigod. Then what your power would be over. This may result in some people being mythologically related to one another but let's ignore that.
The Pantheon thus far is
Agrta Drohaw: A creator deity who created the world and made a few prophecies.
N'nicownr: A god of nature who maintains balance in the world. Divine symbols include squirrel...
L'Kujiul: A storm god, who creates literal sparks of imagination.
Franya: A goddess of law and justice, who maintains a balance in the lives of mortals
Jironacse: A god of learning and ingenuity. The husband to Frayana and the patron god of philosophers.
K'trinop Eayem: The god of Sovereignity and creator of mortals. He functions with the idea that all should maintain itself.
Ashnir: The god of uncertainty and chaos. A trickster archetype who fooled other gods into allowing him to give the boon of magic to mortals.
Ntao: The goddess of cats and the subconscious. The younger sister to Megolna.
Megolna: The god of dogs and the conscious. Older brother to Ntao.
Blaung: The goddess of fun. Has an epithet named Forive, who embodies the natural seeking of enjoyment.
Srankai: A demon of temptation, primarily the temptations of gluttony, lust, and greed.
Glimgneph: A demon of order who viewed mortals wielding magic as a mistake. He seeks to destroy those who misuse magic and those who condone the misuse.
Fallax: A demon of deception who causes distrust between mortals and corrupts the thoughts of mortals and gods alike.
Help expand the Pantheon. A divine name must be an anagram of your username, or an incomplete anagram.

My entry for myself, Mercy... would be the following...
Merse, of the Forsaken. Myself am a hearse driver born from a marriage between an Angel and a Demon. Myself tend to those that are lost in the afterlife and before in some cases. My goal is to prevent souls from becoming lost completely.
Myself am kind and gentle, non-intruding for the most part. As well as, one hell of a driver. XD
Gender: Female, because yeah.
(Anime reference!? Maybe.)
Akornael is not strictly linked with the other immortals. (S)he takes the form of a white cat with blue eyes, or a puddle of white light.
Most gaks are h(is/er) creations, mostly out of need to make an unnamed creature.
Both male and female, light and dark, empathetic and apathetic; deity of binary divides and dualities. As an idea, but open to other interpretations.
God of the unknown and of forbidden knowledge, Curator of the Infinite Vault, the library of the pantheon. His purpose is keeping safe all knowledge the gods have of the multiverse, be it from the past or the future. As such, he delivers prophecy content to the few mortal oracles that were selected by the pantheon council.
Once, he lent a couple of documents of eldritch content to Ashnir, who had gained his trust. The prankster god then promptly let them loose in the mortal world.
Learning that, Glimgneph punished Sebtasoth'Gul in such a way that he is now also the god of dishwashing.
(Also would it be okay to change K'trinop Eayem from he/him to they/them?)
@MonkeyPirate, yes. Also, they weren't actually part of the council, taking to watching over mortal affairs between nations.
On a side note, how come Glimgneph condems the use of the same magic he was born from ? I mean, it's great mytho content, but what's his motive behind that ?
And by nerfs, you mean we're too powerful in a general sense ?
The most powerful things that are going on are general creation things, which I already covered, and the general hacks that will form in divine intervention in mortals.
The thing about Glimgneph is that he is a being born from misuse and inspired by someone who hates it when things are done wrong. It just seemed right...
That'll probably work, but like all of these, I will be taking my own spin, so as to better interlock things and create the wonders of symbolism and whatnot.
Otaimo is the god of honorable combat and vengeance. Many see his methods as cruel, and don’t see eye to eye with him... though that could be because of his “eye for an eye” mentality. He believes those that have caused suffering upon others should pay, often with their life.
A mass of writing flesh filled with agony, fear and despair. Sircude is a hulking mass constructed out of hundreds of grafted-on, half-digested bodies. He himself no longer remembers what he used to look like millenias ago, but in the end his hunger is only equalled by his madness.
