This is what I have so far. I'm willing to change whatever is needed to make it right but for now tell me what you think?
Name:Apolios
The Sun’s Soul, The Radiant, Arbiter of Light
Domain:The Sun
Appearance:
Realm: Terratoria, The Radiant Palace
Known by many as simply "The Radiant Palace", Terratoria is located on the highest peak of Serphrates, the island left of the main continent. It's a majestic holy palace that is covered with gold marble walls and always shines a valiant hue from the peak at all times. The palace is hidden above the clouds that lay just below the mountain's peak but the trek up for a mere mortal is exhausting given how tall the mountain is. While there exists secret portals deep within the mountain that allows people to bypass most of the hike upwards, they are extremely well hidden and are only used for his ground-based military forces to traverse quickly to and from the palace. Even then, Hyperion could simply teleport the individual to him if he so wishes.
Surrounding the mountain also exists a seal that only prevents beings of darkness and pure chaos from reaching the palace without suffering major burns of holy light within a several mile radius. It's essentially a security system that determines who and who isn't worthy in greeting the God of Light. This seal is provided by a large golden monolith located deep inside the palace and guarded by priests and a selected few angelic warriors. If this monolith was to fall, the seal will be broken and darkness and chaos can approach the palace with no problem. Even then, they'd have to get past a large army of angels before they can attempt to lay waste to it, along with Hyperion himself if he's present.
Apolios has taken residence within the realm Hyperion calls home. Being the within the realm of Light made sense being the Sun's Soul and Lord Hyperion was kind enough to provide space within his kingdom for the God of the Sun to create his own realm.
Within Terratoria Apolios has erected a fortress dedicated to all things of the Sun's Soul, Elysium. A fortress within the palace where Apolios trains mages in the art of Radiant magic. While not particularly militant himself, Apolios demands as much of his mage's as Hyperion demands of his soldiers. Among the fortress walls; mages, messengers, and even politicians among the gods in the hopes to be the voice of reason among Hyperions militaristic campaign.
Biography: The sun. The radiant source of light for Tabrasa has always existed for longer than even the oldest gods can remember and in a way Apolios has existed for just as long. While not in the same conisness as he is now but he remembered circling the planet for what seemed like an eternity, until he finally saw the Light. Its presence was so enticing, so dominant that it forced Apolios to form in a physical body. Wrapping the sun’s light around the Divine Cord the would grant him his divinity and the God of the Sun was born.
But in his birth an existential question was formed; how can one be the god of something that has existed before even the Eldest? His life, for a time, was lost in a sea of self made darkness that he could not escape from until he met his brother the God of Light. His conquest to eradicate darkness from Tabrasa struck at his Cord and so the Radiant joined forces to end darkness once and for all.
As humanity progressed and worship of the Sun continued Apolios couldn't help but feel responsible for those who suffer the most in the Eternal Struggle, humans. Knowing that he could not do all things omnipotently Apolios began studying healing magics from his brother Hayim and defensive magic from the spellcasters of Hyperions forces Apolios takes on the role of mediator of the Allegiance of Light and cares for the prayers of humanity that are sent to Hyperion.
Good evening once again everyone. Time for another round of catch-up.
@Rune_Alchemist - It won't be quite the same but yes. As for your goddess submission I'll need you to decide whether or not she'll be born of a spire event before the end of this one. Any new gods made after this event will need to be introduced through a similar event
@Legion02 - Valen is quite acceptable. You have my permission to post him in the Characters tab. Also, I understand the error in the misplaced post. I shan't raise any issue of it.
@Archangel89 - I don't see any issues in your CS currently. If you feel it's ready you may feel free to post what you have under the Characters tab. If there is more you wish to add do add it and let me know when it's done so I can review the changes.
@Lmpkio - I will note that even with his shield if Hyperion remains in the fear aura any longer than he has he'll be at serious risk of losing his domain and becoming another god of fear.

Go ahead and lets make it another spire event cuz I wanna cause as much chaos as possible.

Darn, not even my "totally OP Mary Sue" can get through this heretical plot-device.
@Rune_Alchemist - You may wish to hold onto your CS then as it may need to undergo certain changes to coincide with the event of her birth and the fact she'll have nothing to her name aside from her goddesshood.
@Lmpkio - You don't have to. You can if you wish but it'll still be there doing it's thing by next post. You can write up another post for him or you can wait for my next update which will likely be tomorrow.

Tell you what. I'll wait for your update. Just give Hyperion the chance to leave and I'll have him withdraw in my next post.

Yep, don't worry too much. As I said think of it more of what she'll slowly be working towards. Wanted to sorta let everyone know what I was thinking about doing with her. I'll make adjustments as needed to fit what happens.
Appearance : Quill will often take the form of a regular human, with brown hair and unnaturally yellow eyes. As he primarily uses this form in order to wander Tabrasa, he is usually seen with travelling clothes suited for the environment, even whenever he is some form of civilization. However, whenever he does formally met with another god, rarely he will to dress nicely. Whenever he does want to appear formal, he will wear a simple, pristine white travelling robe with golden accents.
He will also often take the form of a small, brown sparrow, normally for the purposes of travelling or being inconspicuous. While he prefers a sparrow, he is also capable of taking the form of other birds to better suit the environment.
It is very rare for the Wanderer to appear within his godly form, as he maintains this form in a very serious situations which he typically tries to avoid. In this form, he appears as a giant, four-winged eagle. All of his feathers are brown, except for his stomach feathers which are white and the feathers at the tip of his wings which are golden.
Realm
As a god of travelling, having a realm has been difficult. However, the illusory nature of the realm of travelling has interested and so he had pursued the idea of creating one. However, most of his attempts had failed. Merely trying to imbue a piece of ground with his divine power seemed to be temporary at most. He had tried to designate a specific pathway as his divine realm, and it had lasted longer, but without anyone travelling among the trail, his power seemed to fade from the area. He had tried to walk the path by himself, but that quickly began to bore him. At one point, he had constructed a castle, and tried to imbue it as his realm. The result was that the castle tried to move south and ended up collapsing.
Eventually, his efforts began to tire him, and so he quickly constructed a cottage using his power, and tried to recover his strength, and made plans to circumnavigate the world a few times as creating a realm began to bore him. While resting, he found himself drifting asleep, whenever he awoke from the strange dream of the door, he stepped out of the cottage only to find himself, and the cottage, in a completely different area.
Not even Quill fully understands the rules of the Nomadic Cottage, however he does knows that it will occasionally disappear and reappear on another location on Tabrasa, and this process is nearly instantaneous. It is more durable than its construction would lead a person to believe, and will seemingly teleport in respond to being damaged. It can not appear within a region dominated by another divine influence, including divine domains.
He will occasionally spend time within the cottage, but he has no special way to locate the cottage except for a wind-chime that he had placed within it that alerts him of its location whenever it rings. It is also the only item of special importance that he keeps within the cottage.
Biography : Quill is a younger god, though he has forgotten the exact time of his creation. He is also one of the weaker gods, with a very specific domain, though he seems to pay little heed to this. He is prone to flights of fancy, of grand-projects he usually leaves only half complete. However, he is most prone to merely wandering around the world without much purpose. Sometimes he will walk along, sometimes he will walk with someone else, and sometimes he will walk with a group of people. And between his pet projects, and his endless wandering, he is often content and relaxed. Whenever something begins to frustrate or bore him is when he begins to shift focus to something else.
However, he is a compassionate god, and will often aid those in need of help in both small and large ways. While he will help nearly anyone who is cruel or wicked, he does favor fellow travelers and explorers.
He is also willing to ignore most small slights against him, however whenever he does lead his protection to a chosen person or group, he is fiercely loyal to them, and can become angry at those who hurt his loyal followers. However, the greatest way to anger the Wanderer is to threaten or attempt to restrict or imprison him. While he is a weak god, those who attempt to cage him and fail will feel the ire of the wandering god.
Put that on my Tabula
Edit: I really shouldn't make a CS right after I wake up, I will come back through and polish this up later, I just want to make sure that there wasn't anything that just wouldn't work with my character concept.
Edit 2: This is the final draft unless I need to change something.
@A Lowly Wretch Btw, can you quickly update the God chart to see where the new characters are placed in the grand scheme? This will help me where to put my relationships for the new bloods.
If you're going to chug out the update post first, by all means do not let me stop you.
