Here is a list of characters from the Efévresi, another set of the scions of Adversus who embody domains different but nevertheless related to adversity, namely innovation and adaptation driven by them.

Efévresi


    open/close all folders 

    General 
  • Gadgeteer Genius: A patron of these people, since the Efévresi govern and inspire innovation and creativity
  • The Muse: Collectively, they serve as this for inventors and innovators of all kinds, driving mortals to use their intellect and creativity to adapt, overcome, solve and otherwise respond to obstacles and adversity.

    Ergaleía, Adversity's Firstborn 

Classification: Ethereal/Ascendant(?)

Portfolio: Invention, Fire, Blacksmithing, Crafting

Rank: Primeval/Preeminent

"If Adversity is the mother of Invention, then I am the big brother."

Ergaleía (his entry here) is the eldest son of Adversus, the Grand Primeval, the Adversity Primeval, and is the benevolent god of Invention, Fire, Blacksmithing, and Crafting.
  • Anthropomorphic Personification: He's a Minotaur god who embodies Invention, Fire, Blacksmithing, and Crafting.
  • Collector of the Strange: An admirer of mortal ingenuity and innovation, he has a great personal museum commemorating the greatest achievements and triumphs of mortalkind throughout the Ages. He collected relics from the time Ponykind had landed on the Moon, for example (to note, not the 'Second Age' one, but during one of the earliest advanced Pony civilizations, predating the 'Ages of Known History' by many, many, many aeons), and that's just a tiny tip of the iceberg.
  • Multiarmed Multitasking: Can spawn up to twelve extra arms on his divine form and uses them to great effect in his work crafting and creating new tools and inventions.
  • Our Minotaurs Are Different: Often takes a Minotaur form in the modern eras, although given his age and nature this is most definitely not his true form (something further suggested because his twin sister Strife is a Draconequus). Certainly helps him to pick up and use his tools to create all sorts of creations and inventions.
  • Time Abyss: Is the firstborn of Adversus, the Adversity Primeval and had been around since the earliest sapient races capable of creativity and invention arose/arrive on Equus. It's revealed his younger twin sister Strife might have came into being alongside evolution itself, meaning he might actually be far older than that.
  • Ultimate Blacksmith: The Ultimate Blacksmith. He's the oldest deity of the concept (because he inspired its invention in the first place) and the greatest blacksmith on the planet as a result. His creations are Made of Indestructium among other extremely desirable qualities.

    Immortalis, the King of Adaptation 
First mentioned in a Drabble, Immortalis is an adoptive member of the Efévresi and an adoptive sibling and rival to Traasena, the Queen Predator of the Adversai, embodying an ultimate survivor to Traasena's embodiment as an ultimate predator.
  • Adaptive Ability: His domains of Adaptation and Evolution grant him powers which enable Immortalis to not only survive what almost kills him but also grow and evolve resistance if not outright immunity to
  • Anthropomorphic Personification: Immortalis embodies Adaptation, Defense Mechanisms, Unity, Evolution, and Survival.
  • Complete Immortality: Immortalis' Adaptive Ability as well as domain of Survival makes him nigh-unkillable to the point he puts even Perpetuals to shame. Due to his relation to Mitochondria (the most successful lifeform ever known, being quite literally everywhere inside EVERY living thing), so long as Equusian life with Mitochondria exists, he would always regenerate and will never die, not even if his rival Traasena somehow kills or consumes him as even she has Mitochondria as well, meaning he could technically regenerate from HER body as well.
  • Forever War: Immortalis and Traasena had opposed each other since coming into being for around a million years, and fought each other for centuries non-stop in their first encounter before Traasena concedes they could do this until the end of time itself, earning her respect.
  • From a Single Cell: Immortalis can regenerate from nigh anything, even things that'd kill a Perpetual, but takes it a step further. His association with mitochondria means so long as any exists on Equus, he can regenerate from it. This means the only way to kill him is to kill all life on Equus and some beyond it.
  • Hive Mind: He was born when an entire civilization willingly evolved into a hive mind organism to survive against Traasena. It is believed he is now a hive mind composed of every Mitochondria on the planet.
  • The Rival: To Traasena, the ultimate survivor and shield to her ultimate predator and spear, having evolved from a civilization who willingly adapted and evolved into a hive-minded being which could survive Traasena's predatory onslaughts.
  • Ultimate Lifeform: By certain metrics the ultimate survivor, capable of adapting to any predator and environment.
  • Worthy Opponent: Being her perfect counter whom she had fought, non-stop, for centuries without success, Traasena considers him to be this and has earned her respect.

    Chīsana Kumo, the Spider Queen of Kumo-rui
