Name: Vowzra
Alias: The Timeless One, The Celestial Above, The Vicegerent of Fate, Guardian of the Timeline
Domain (Portfolio): Creation (Time)
Domain (Portfolio) Description:Creation is a subtle art. All gods can create, all gods can mould the world around them to their will and create what they wish within their domain. But to rule over the domain of creation is to create an art of the very act of creating. A god of creation has increased power in all domains but proficiency over none. Thus, while inherently more skilled at moulding earth than a fire type god, a creation god cannot match an earth type god in this regard.
More importantly, a creation god has the ability to, at a high enough level, create enormous systems known as 'universes' in empty worlds, like the New World. Where a creation god is not powerful enough to do such a thing, they can channel energies in order to create a universe. However, no more than one universe can exist within one world and the power of Amul'Sharar and Fate prevent any god from slipping into another, completely separate dimension. This world will only become a universe when Vowzra wills it, but such a feat cannot be accomplished by one god alone. Indeed, the creation of the universe will require a ritual which sees all the gods put their powers together. One moment of unity before the shattering disunity.
Time is a very ambiguous thing, it begins when a universe is created and is limitless in its scope and possibilities. Even a god of time cannot completely encompass or control time in its entirety. Indeed, Vowzra is convinced that 'Time' is itself a manifest being which transcends all worlds and dimensions. A truly ultimate god - perhaps even the only true god. But these are merely Vowzra's musings, he has no way of proving it. Vowzra can see a limited number of timelines which lead the universe down different routes, and it is Vowzra's duty to choose one route and work to ensuring that the universe sticks with it as much as he can help it. Vowzra also knows all the potential ways the world can be brought to a devastating end, and with it the gods, and it is his ultimate purpose to ensure that such an end does not come about. The only end that is acceptable is a dignified one, and the only dignified end is the one willed by Fate.
His powers include the ability to cause things to age or become younger immediately, open up time portals leading to minor planes where the laws of time differ greatly from the universe's, and he has the ability to bring time to a halt, thus freezing all things in existence. This ability does not affect gods.
In combat with other gods, Vowzra has the ability to slow down opponents by warping time around them thus making it so that they operate at slower rate of time. This can be broken should Vowzra lose focus - if, for instance, an external attack draws his attention. Vowzra also has the ability to slip into the very fabric of existence. He does not move to another plane, but rather becomes part of the very universe. Simply put, if we take the fabric of existence to be a 'wall' separating one plane from another, Vowzra does not slip through the wall and into the other plane, but becomes part of the wall.
Alignment: Lawful Neutral - from
easydamus.com/lawfulneutral.html'Those of this alignment view regulation as all-important, taking a middle ground betwixt evil and good. This is because the ultimate harmony of the world--and the whole universe--is considered by lawful neutral creatures to have its sole hope rest upon law and order. Evil or good are immaterial beside the determined purpose of bringing all to predictability and regulation. It is the view of this alignment that law and order give purpose and meaning to everything. Without regimentation and strict definition, there would be no purpose in the cosmos. Therefore, whether a law is good or evil is of no import as long as it brings order and meaning.
They are respectful to both their leaders and their peers. Subordinates will be treated as is due their station within society. Written contracts and verbal agreements will be honored by these characters. They will not break their word or a contract unless there is a legal way to do so. Lawful neutral beings are concerned with the letter of the law, but rarely the spirit. These characters also respect the idea of station in life. They will act as they should, given their station.
The lawful neutral being normally sees law and order as of prime importance, with the well-being of the group put ahead of the individual on almost every occasion. Such persons see good and evil as immaterial and unimportant in the structuring of the universe into perfect order and harmony, in which lies society's only hope for survival. Whether a law is good or evil is of no import as long as it brings order and meaning. Thus, personal gratification of needs and desires is well and fine, as long as this doesn't interfere with the ultimate ordering of the cosmos; all other considerations are secondary. Life, to the lawful neutral being, has no meaning without order, and is thus expendable when faced with the choice between it and harmony.'
Gender: Referred to as 'he' or 'she' depending on his chosen form. He is neither male nor female. 'He' will be used as default.
Personality:Vowzra is a disdainful being. He will not meddle with things which are of no consequence in the greater scheme of things. Why should he feed a starving child when the child is fated to die anyway? No, if a child is to be fed then it must be because it has a great purpose to fulfill and therefore must survive. If a creation is to receive help, then it is because they are needed to keep the world on the 'correct' timeline. If a woman is to be aided, she or her descendants must be of importance for the world. That is how Vowzra sees the world, even his fellow deities. If a deity is fated to be destroyed or killed, then they are of no interest to Vowzra. If a deity will knock this world off the correct path, it must be dealt with. If a deity is of importance to this world, it must be befriended and aided when aid is needed.
Vowzra likes it when things go as planned, he likes organisation and the setting of rigid rules which must not be broken. After all, time must not be interfered with by foolish ones who seek disorder and chaos. No, he likes order, he likes discipline. Of course, his perception of what is order and chaos are very different from others. He views things from the greater scheme of things. It does not mean he does not like chaos happening, he just does not like it when chaos happens without it being Fated to, or when chaos does not occur when it is meant to.
In the same way, he does not like it when there is order when order is not meant to be, or when there is no order when it should be present, when somebody who should be dead is still alive or when somebody who should be alive is dead. Yes, he likes it when time goes as planned. He likes order in his plans, not the meddling of fools who know not what they do - and time is a very fragile thing, any bumbling foolish nitwit with a bit of power could derail it and lead the world into the great, terrible unknown.
Depending on the individual or people in question, the situation at hand, and what the timelines dictate, Vowzra can be kind and compassionate, or he can be utterly cruel and cold. If his plans call for him to be cruel, he will be savage, if he must be kind, he will be benevolent.
Vowzra is emotionally very stable, for he is aware of what will happen and is ever ready for it. Nothing ever catches him off guard. Of course, when time is not going as planned and things which should not be happening are happening, he can become very unstable, going into a furious cold rage and heaving chaos in untold ways - summoning creatures from beyond time, creatures that no deity or mortal should ever hope to witness. Of course, such a thing will require a great amount of power and might and, of course, concentration, lest even the god be sucked into the Hells of Time, a world so terrifying that deities who have been there have never come out alive, and those who did were never the same - other than Vowzra, that is.
While Vowzra is all-aware, his level of awareness is generally limited to the timeline he can see and a few variants of that timeline. This differentiates him from gods whose domains are more focused around knowledge of multiple futures and presents. His purpose is to ensure that the world does not slip from its destined timeline, or if it does, that the variations are very slight and lead to a dignified rather than devastating end. This means that he can at times become irrationally bent on preventing the world from slipping into a timeline unknown to him but perhaps known to others, even if he is assured that said timeline is far better for the world.
Vowzra is emotionally very distant, even from his fellow deities, and even more so from mortals and creations, not tying himself to a select few who choose to worship and honour him. In fact, he pays most mortals and most immortals (deities that is) very little attention at best, unless they interfere with his plans. After all, he has greater and more important work to be doing. He, the Governor of Creation, the Lord of Time. He cannot bother himself with a single time slot and a single creature or creatures. The Fate of the world rests in his hands and he must see to it that the world he dwells in goes down the correct path, a path which will not lead to destruction and doom, as was the Fate of the old gods and their world.
To achieve this, he will go to great lengths so as to make sure that the world stays fixated on the correct path, whether he must see to it that a vile and evil power rises and dominates or whether a great and noble one meets its end. This is the way of the world, the feelings and well-being of the few at a certain point and place in history cannot lead to the destruction of creation, he will make sure if it, even if the other deities grow to hate him, even if the mortals shun him and all his followers. He will do what must be done, he will not play around with simple, foolish, naive things like 'justice' and 'honour'. No, he will do what must be done, whether just or unjust, honourable or otherwise, for he knows the result, he knows what will happen, and he knows what will happen otherwise.
Apperance:He has many forms, some known, but most are unknown, even to other deities. He is most commonly known as the
'Old Sage of Wood' among mortals and among the divine.
When appearing to mortals, Vowzra is usually in the form of the
'Old Man of the Woods' or the
'Wise Woman' giving wise counsel or asking for some kind of assistance. Those who do not listen to advice given or refuse to assist receive an eternal curse, while those who listen to or help the deity receive blessings and are looked over by Vowzra even after death.
Among the other deities, he is also known as the
'Guardian of the Air' and as the
'Furred Guardian', appearing in this form only to those mortals who shall soon meet an end due to their trespassing, so mortals do no know him by this form, as all who see it die. The other form he is known for is the
'Guardian of the Woods' a form he has yet to show to any mortal eyes.
These are the only forms he has shown to any other creature, he has many more and may or may not reveal them in the coming years and centuries.

Numero SeisDescription: Vowzra is rather distant and detached, or at least he appears so. He does very little directly and simply watches. While other gods certainly do not underestimate him - how can one underestimate a god with such a domain and portfolio? - but his general disdain and detachment make him easy to forget about or ignore when plotting and scheming.
What is rather odd is that despite his general disdain and detachment, Vowzra can become extremely involved in the scheming and plotting of gods when he wishes. Such involvement appears rather random to some, but those who have greater vision and understanding can generally see that his involvement is to ensure the safety of the timeline - although at points it his actions make it very difficult to believe that.
For a god of creation, his creation are a poor lot indeed. In creating them he is generally benevolent and generous, raining on them his pleasure and blessings. However, with time he can grow very distant and ignore the pleas and cries for his help. Perhaps he enjoys testing his worshippers to see who of them has the greatest faith, or maybe he is secretly just a consummate sadist.
Generally, however, Vowzra's worshippers, when he is directly involved with them, can grow very powerful and prosperous, while the 'Chosen' (Heroes) among his creation enjoy great prestige and power - as a base, they have the unique ability to 'create' living creatures (an ability which becomes more powerful as they grow), as well as various time-based capabilities, which also become more powerful as they grow - but it comes at the cost of having their god give them bizarre tasks; abandon them, sometimes for apparently no reason, for terrific periods of time; or even allow them to be corrupted and used as the playthings of other gods.
