Ruotta -

Ruotta, Father of Plagues sought to create amongst the cosmos and the world below seeds from which to grow countless ages of pestilence from, and so he, in his infinite wisdoms, created Desarid, the plane of desolation. Devoid of all mortal spoils, this world of deserts, peppered with seldom oasis and reprieve, is home only to some few carrion and sand-burrowers. The isthmus to this perpetually barren place would be placed on the foot-hills of Avuiro, home of the Sqrairriww, The Birdfolk. To balance this desolation, Ruotta did sow the Multfeio, a species of miniscule but vibrant fish into the reefs of the south, to feed from the bacteria and viruses of the world he would indeed sow.

Uode -

Uode, persistent in their ways to maintain the immorphic nature of the universe, seeking to improve upon their creation in the Devoweler, the frost worms, they did create the Kilaueat'i Devowl (Plural: Devowla). Great winged worms, unarmored as their ice-borne brethen, but capable of screaming into the rock around them to orientate their tunnelling efforts. Equally capable of consuming solid stone as the Devowelers are of ice, their unique physiology digests the rock into liquid magma, which is naturally expelled through either the natural digestive tract or regurgitated to bold martial effect. Capable of both short-term gliding and significant stretches of flight, the Devowla's 8 pairs of wings will fold out from beneath their thick armor-like skin, and are capable of folding up so as to allow mid-air diving into the ground for burrowing.

Seeking to engage change in the present order, these Devowla are gathered into droves by Uode and set upon the Caldera in the north, near their point of progenation, and feast upon the roots of its stone.

Aeyandite -

And Aeyandite looked down from her temporal forges and sought to leave her mark for this age strewn across the continents. Expanding the dominion and lands of the Brassborn in the east by moving their shores as so, they were left with the minerals and expansion to do as they might.

To the west, she saw the need for another great undertaking, the creation of Humanity, a great race of philosophers, of mortal men and women who would share an intimate relationship with death, so as to better understand the passing of time. For their habitation Aeyandite would create the greater land of Selvin, within which the extensive Tiverwich Timberlands would house Humanities first city, Erethonia.

Norjak, Bringer of Spawn, in guise of another deity, looked upon the world and thought that providence was lacking. Thusly he did place upon the globe the seeds of that fruition, the Glanchorp genus, a highly competitive fruit-fungal form that saw itself capable of incredible invasion across biomes, and yet also incredibly and inexplicably nutritious to all that ate it.

Lirokof -

lirokof saw unto the cosmos and saw that all the world, indeed all of the worlds, should be maintained with balance. Thus for the plane of ice must exist an opposite plane for fire to hold the planarverse in balance. Thus is born Kovol, plane of fire. Bubbling with great oceans of liquid magma, and cooled jutting continents of basalt and obsidian formations. to embody this realm of fire were the Dragons Wyrd born from Lirokof's own flesh of fire. Wise and sage, the Wyrd Dragons are great reptiles of divine soul and reincarnation. Lirokof is defiant of destiny and the forces of fate, imbuing their souls with knowledge after death. When a Wyrd dragon passes, their soul is capable of nesting itself within the heart and brain of zygotic drakes within the egg still. As the newborn grows their personality, soul, and memory grows with the body - slowly incorporating countless lifetimes of experience and wisdom. Indeed, Lirokof has granted the Wyrd dragons the ability in dire circumstances or by choice of sheer will to reincarnate their souls into the newborns of other species, to grow as another mortal with their perspective but all of the sage wisdom of countless dragons in years past. Not all the Wyrd Dragons are granted this immortal reincarnated life, children born without a reincarnated soul become 'lesser' dragons, doomed to just one lifetime before they perish into the magmaflows of their homeland Kovol.

Lirokof looked beyond his Dragons Wyrd and the realm of fire, Kovol, seeking to connect all that he could and generate the unifying spirit to bind the divine energies of all the gods. So he created great spikes of black obsidian and from his seat up in the heavens did he throw them down unto the earths below, binding their energies to the base chambers of a great volcano on Kovol. Acting as gates through space and time, they create tunnels from their respective places in the planarverse to that chamber on Kovol, acting as an intermittent pathway to connect distant places.

Vynthrol -

Vynthrol looked forth from his righteous fires and sought to expand upon that which he had laid foundation for. The forests of Miltourne, home of his favoured creations, the Elterbrin, would be expanded forth to form expansive grasslands to the north, as they would endeepen and grow to the west. A great river would gouge out through the northern spanse of the continent and within the depths of Miltourne, the Elterbrin would know a savage, but beautiful paradise.

As their society expanded, the Elterbrin would be directed by divine vision to tame the Armmamik's, using them as hunting mounts and beasts of burden, equally discovering in the depths of their new forest great spots of 'power'. By their belief, this 'hidden flame' extended out from the 'other world' and granted strange visions, power and experiences to those in its proximity, and so did they begin building plinths and altars in the depths of the forest, attempting to extort some divine influence from this array of eldritch flames known as the "The Life Fires"

Zanderas -

Zanderas, the Elder God, would seek first to spread his first creation, the plantform Thornysweet across the southern edge of Miltourne, although being a plant and therefore incapable of insanity, it could not cross the Sanus Belt, it did colonize and dominate the coastline and rocky stretches.

Zanderas looked forward from plant-life, having engineered sufficiently this lifeform, he turned to the north, creating the greatly shaped continent of "Hexrock" from barren rocks, and upon it sat the great Plateau, an imposing shelf of granite sheet some hundreds of metres thick. In the depths of Hexrock were the Dwarves created, a brood of solid-stone gola who bore resilience seldom matched the world over, capable of seeing through the rock around them with but a touch, and great ponderers of the higher mysteries. Unaging, unchanging, these stone beings would last an age before slowly turning to statues, losing mobility as the aeons collapsed the divine energies at their core.

These stone folk would reside within the plateau itself, burrowing halls from the granite as they built their first city, Humbles.
