Gods
Ethereal beings with divinity and the abiility to create
Gods, alongside Devils, are beings far above Angels and other short lived beings within the Nexus.
They are defined by their divinity, which is a powerful aura that can heal, bless and support other beings with said aura.
Gods can be born, brought forth by worlds or crerated by higher beings.
History
The first Gods were born within the first millenia of Orcuses reclusion.
The residual energy from both Orcuses Worshippers, and Aethers has brought forth the first beings able to create beings as well. Created by the Nexus itself, they had no familial ties and most remained loners for most of their life.
These first Gods were known as the first generation that made up the first concepts within the Nexus. Amongst these first concepts were the following:
- Healing
- Emotion
- Wishes
- Stars
- Blessings
It is unknown whether or not these old gods are still alive, as Gods cannot die of old age and can merely be killed, there is a higfh possibility that they are very much so still alive.
Over the following millenia Gods and Devils have clashed multiple times over the residency upon worlds, (planets created by the nexuses ever moving energy). To the point where a war broke out which had killed many young gods and devils and left the eldest to stop said senseless wars.
A form of buddy system has been established, in which one God and one Devil would inhabit and govern over one world. It quickly became apparent that the Gods and Devils opposing powers and auras were able to balance one another out perfectly, providing a good basis for a flourishing world.
As such this System had become a rather stable standard within the Nexus. As it was nowadays strange to see a God or a Devil rule a world all on their own. It takes to much energy from a God or a Devil to rule and nurish a world on their own. Some still do, but only when they are able to provide said energy.
Anatomy
Gods have taken a humanoid form since their very beginning. Since their base physiology is based on the Worshippers Orcus had created many millenia ago and the residual energy left behind by Aether, their Aura and Power has manifested as Halos, wings or the like.
It is not standard to see a God with wings or a Halo, as the divinity can manifest as something else like tails or even horns.
Depending on their powers and beings concept (more below) their body may show signs of this as well.
For an Example: A God of Flowers who has Flowers growing within his hair.
Concepts
A concept is a sort of Theme that a god is born with. This theme can be determined through their surroundings, familial herritage or the Nexuses influence. The concept is determined at birth and can not be changed.
Some Gods despise this fact, since they are destined to follow the path that their concept dictates. For an example: A God of Flowers could never learn other powers that do not align with his own concept.

Reproduction
Different from their power to create divine beings with their concept, they can become pregnant and give birth to gods as well.
The procedure of conceiving a child is as simple as sex education itself.
The gender of the parents does not matter, as the gender of a God or Devil is not set in stone and their bodies can accomodate their wish to conceive.
