Oh, and the same spores that have this effect on the brain also destroy the lungs – the first groups of scientists studying Morrigan Lugus died when their lungs literally started talking to them.

[[folder:Morrigan Lugus]]
The first of the superhumans, this one was formed from [[SpaceIsMagic space-born]] FesteringFungus that coalesced into a three-faced humanoid giant.
----
* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler:Ultimately, it is the last of the supergods, and, as far as can be seen, the last species on Earth.]]
* EldritchAbomination: Moreso than any other Supergod, as it wasn't even hypothetically of human origin outside of the humans inside it. Physically it's a three-faced giant composed of the bodies of a trio of unfortunate astronauts fused with a mass of alien mushrooms. Mentally it's an entity beyond human comprehension whose mere presence warps the human mind.
* FesteringFungus: Infiltrates basically anything so long as there aren't defenses against fungal influence. This includes [[OrganAutonomy commandeering people's organs]] or [[spoiler:taking over entire continents by sporulation]].
* GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul: One of the creepiest aspects of Morrigan Lugus. In spite of being a huge bloated undead abomination, its presence biochemically forces human brains into a state of religious and sexual ecstasy, making the humans kneel before it in prayer and masturbation. Oh, and the same spores that have this effect on the brain also destroy the lungs – the first groups of scientists studying Morrigan Lugus died when their lungs literally started talking to them.
* HiveMind: Reddin has the (probably foolish) hope that Morrigan Lugus absorbs mental aspects of the (now billions of) people it grows on. However, judging from its TheReasonYouSuckSpeech listed in the quotes page of this comic, that is highly unlikely.
* OrganicTechnology: It is identified by the narrator to possibly be a mycological computer on a meat substrate, essentially a fungal computer. To wit, when not deciding to use sound to speak, it sometimes would communicate by emitting radio signals, and other times would "eject spores, a 4-phosporolated indole full of digital code".
* SpaceIsMagic: Part of Morrigan Lugus' origin involves three astronauts with minimal radiation shielding encountering a mysterious space-born fungus.
* TwoFaced: Has the faces of all of its incorporated astronauts.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Krishna]]
The cloned, biological Indian Supergod and focus of much of the conflict in the plot.
----
* AIIsACrapshoot: Krishna is a fusion of super-genius AI, human DNA and molecular nanomachines. He's programmed to save India from its various domestic problems. He fulfils his mission...to apocalyptic effect.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: He's blue skinned. The scientists say this is a flaw in the cloning process, but Reddin thinks [[RuleOfSymbolism that's bullshit]].
* {{Badass}}: Barring [[spoiler:dying to Dajjal]], there is literally no conflict that Krishna does not come out on top of, including fighting [[spoiler:Malak, Perun, and Maitreya]].
* TheExtremistWasRight: [[spoiler:If Dajjal is to be believed and based on evidence toward the end Krishna truly was making the world a better place and solving all of its problems.]]
* GoodIsNotNice: Ultimately, he turns out to be this. [[spoiler:Though he did kill 90% of Indians, his ultimate vision of India ''was'' better.]] It's just that the genocidal effect to which he operated was still likely unforgivable.
* UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: How Krishna approaches India's problems.
* TheVoiceless: Like most supergods, Krishna never says a word.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Krishna was programmed to solve India's problems and protect it. It truly seeks to carry out its orders in the most efficient way possible. Virtually every action of Krisha's has a reason behind it that in the long run is intended to improve it. [[spoiler:If Dajjal's comments are any indication Krisha was right.]]

[[folder:Jerry Craven]]
The American supergod, Craven is a former U.S. pilot who died in an accident and was reconstructed as a {{cyborg}}, and has delusions of having come from Heaven.
----
* {{Cyborg}}: With technology from the 1970s.
* FightsLikeANormal: Compared to the other superhumans, he's actually pretty normal, being based on [[TheSeventies 1970s]] technology to make him stronger and faster, but otherwise largely obsolete.
* MeaningfulName: His initials are the same as JesusChrist.
* MilitarySuperhero: He's the closest to a traditional superhero of the beings, and he works directly for the U.S. military.
* NinjaZombiePirateRobot: As Reddin admits, he's an undead cyborg astronaut.
* OnlySaneMan: He's the only one of the superhuman beings to ''not'' try to attack Krishna, which would just make the situation even worse than it already was.

* PowerGlows: His entire body is perpetually glowing.
* VillainousBreakdown: Literally. Upon his defeat, he panics so much that [[spoiler:he expands his destructive tendencies to their ultimate extent, tearing through and [[DetonationMoon disassembling the moon as he tears through it]], killing countless people on Earth]].
* WalkingWasteland: Disassembles atomic structures by looking at people, and leaves a trail of destruction, including a barrier of said disassembly, around his entire body perpetually.
* WhatDidYouExpectWhenYouNamedIt: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Reddin; how could the Iranians have expected something good to come of naming their angel after the Devil?
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Dajjal]]
An artificial god built by the American military during the Iraq War, and named after the Islamic devil. Dajjal was created "without sanity", possessing the ability to see all possible timelines and outcomes to every event history would ever hold.
----
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Detonates his power source after seeing Jerry Craven and Krishna make peace, not wanting to live to a better place in reality, as it would bore him.]]
* HumanoidAbomination: More than many other superhumans, as he is only mostly formed, made of purple bits of matter but not an actually fully formed being.
* TheOmniscient: Dajjal can see emergent timelines and the new timelines born from every action. To the point where he actually responds to and corrects the narration because he can "see" Reddin talking about him in the future.
* SanityHasAdvantages: Subverted. Dajjal was created without sanity, but not insane. Instead, he judges reality on [[BlueAndOrangeMorality entirely different structures]], which allow him to survive as long as he wants to.

The American supergod, Craven is a former U.S. pilot who died in an accident and was reconstructed as a {{cyborg}}, and has delusions of having come from Heaven.
----
* {{Cyborg}}: With technology from the 1970s.
* FightsLikeANormal: Compared to the other superhumans, he's actually pretty normal, being based on [[TheSeventies 1970s]] technology to make him stronger and faster, but otherwise largely obsolete.
* MeaningfulName: His initials are the same as JesusChrist.
* MilitarySuperhero: He's the closest to a traditional superhero of the beings, and he works directly for the U.S. military.
* NinjaZombiePirateRobot: As Reddin admits, he's an undead cyborg astronaut.
* OnlySaneMan: He's the only one of the superhuman beings to ''not'' try to attack Krishna, which would just make the situation even worse than it already was.

[[folder:Malak]]
An Iranian supergod forged to make an angel, but named for the Devil.
----
* BaldOfEvil: As far as can be seen, he's bald.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: What he was intended to be, with no free will and a direct connection to God.
* OurDemonsAreDifferent: What he actually turned out to be, owing to his name and his destructive tendencies.
* PowerGlows: His entire body is perpetually glowing.
* VillainousBreakdown: Literally. Upon his defeat, he panics so much that [[spoiler:he expands his destructive tendencies to their ultimate extent, tearing through and [[DetonationMoon disassembling the moon as he tears through it]], killing countless people on Earth]].
* WalkingWasteland: Disassembles atomic structures by looking at people, and leaves a trail of destruction, including a barrier of said disassembly, around his entire body perpetually.
* WhatDidYouExpectWhenYouNamedIt: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Reddin; how could the Iranians have expected something good to come of naming their angel after the Devil?

[[folder:Dajjal]]
An artificial god built by the American military during the Iraq War, and named after the Islamic devil. Dajjal was created "without sanity", possessing the ability to see all possible timelines and outcomes to every event history would ever hold.
----
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Detonates his power source after seeing Jerry Craven and Krishna make peace, not wanting to live to a better place in reality, as it would bore him.]]
* HumanoidAbomination: More than many other superhumans, as he is only mostly formed, made of purple bits of matter but not an actually fully formed being.
* TheOmniscient: Dajjal can see emergent timelines and the new timelines born from every action. To the point where he actually responds to and corrects the narration because he can "see" Reddin talking about him in the future.
* SanityHasAdvantages: Subverted. Dajjal was created without sanity, but not insane. Instead, he judges reality on [[BlueAndOrangeMorality entirely different structures]], which allow him to survive as long as he wants to.
