Tauren Giant Pantheon(s)
With many Giant races, there are also many Giant deities, and the Tauren Peninsula is no exception. The Giant Gods there are collected into a loose alliance who doesn't always get along well with each other, but still manages to find common cause in fighting off threats and fighting for dominance over the Peninsula against the non-Giant Tauren Gods. open/close all folders
General
- We ARE Struggling Together: Downplayed, as while they often squabble with each other over one reason or another, the Tauren Giant Pantheon(s) appear to remain generally united as a bloc with consensus on certain issues, such as conflict/competition with their non-Giant counterparts in the Tauren Peninsula, as well as (literally) kicking flankholes like Khakiston out of their ranks.
Gigantes Pantheon
Terraton
Classification: Ethereal/Elemental
Portfolio: Earth, Battle, Honor
Rank: Titan
"From honour comes might; fight with honour, and you will quake the world itself!"
Terraton (his entry here
) is the Tauren Giant god of Earth, Battle, and Honor, and is the 'Father Deity' of the Gigantes race of Tauren Giants.- Big Eater: Has an appetite to match his gigantic stature, to the point he can and had gulped down whole nations and whole tribes of giants. As noted, this is pretty much expected of most Giants and their Divines.
- Bigger on the Inside: As per standard to divines, especially Giant gods, to the point it's like a whole land/continent in itself. He have had whole civilizations and pantheons rising and falling inside his guts after chowing them down over the ages.
- Blood Knight: Loves to fight and had won more often than he had lost. There's a reason why he's the Gigantes' God of Battle.
- God-Eating: He, like other Giant divines, likes eating their divine rivals and foes in conflicts - especially those of the Tinies - as their way of dealing with them, whether to simply imprison them inside his body until he lets them go, or digest and absorb their power into himself as a way of disposing them. Given his size, might and age, he had chowed down whole pantheons.
- Heel Realization / Jerkass Realization: Terraton had one about his own character when he found a Tinies' temple dedicated to his honour while he was wandering incognito as a Tiny. The statue and iconography depicted him as a monstrous god, despite them being grateful for his unwitting rescue from a Draconic demigod, since that is all they knew of him is that of a violent, dominating and hungry monster. They prayed that he is actually the noble, honourable god they think he is and would be merciful if he ever found out about this place. That was when he realize what sort of person he really was and did not like it one bit.
- I Am a Humanitarian: Coming with being a Giant deity, he punishes wayward members of his Gigantes mortal children and divine children by devouring them, letting them fester forever inside his endless innards as punishment for their crimes if they are not simply digested. This is considered NORMAL for Giant deities, however.
- Large and in Charge: He's big as a mountain, the father deity of the Gigantes Giants race and is one of the leading members of the Tauren Giant Pantheons.
- Made of Iron: Owing to being an earth deity, a magical entity born from geological processes like volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, he himself is incredibly tough.
- During the 'Final Ragnarok', he got himself impaled through the abdomen on Surtr's antlers, straight through his back, which would had straight-out killed any other living thing and mortally-wound even a lesser god. To Terraton, however, it was Only a Flesh Wound, and he proceeds to pound the living crap out of Surtr's face, snap the antler off still lodged in his body, then rip said antler out of his body intact, and still had enough in him to charge and ram the Fire Jotunn Destroyer Deity into a mountain, calling him out for his abhorrence and atrocities all the while. He remained in fighting condition for the rest of the epic battle.
- Mighty Glacier: He's huge and mighty, but it comes at the expense of being slow by Giant Deity standards and not possessing good mobility. Still, once he gets going, few things can really stop him.
- Monstrous Cannibalism: Ate his own mortal and divine children if they had done enough to warrant such a definitive punishment, though that's considered standard as to Giant deities, who are Big Eater types like their mortal children and Bigger on the Inside themselves.
- Noodle Incident:
- Participated in the battle against and sealing of the Fallen Giant Deity Grand King Typhon while his mortal Gigantes children helped drove Typhon's mortal children the Typhonae away to remote Giant Lands far from the Taurus Peninsula.
- Had fought Surtr in the past early in the exile of the Fallen Fire Jotunn Destroyer Deity, driving the destructive psychopath out of the Taurus Peninsula with the other Giant deities of the lands after a hard-fought conflict. Surtr is still smarting over his defeat and Terraton still has plenty of pummeling to spare for him when they confronted each other again during 'Final Ragnarok'.
- Despising the warmongering bully Khakiston like the rest of the Taurus Giant Deities, he was the one who kicked him out of the pantheon and the Taurus Peninsula - as in, quite literally so, having bucked him away so hard he flew across continents and landed elsewhere. To say he REALLY don't like the little violent idiot would be an Under Statement.
- Person of Mass Destruction: Comes with being a huge Giant Earth Deity born from background magical processes behind earthquakes and volcanism. He can lay waste to whole lands and armies of demigods by himself. A squabble with other Tauren Giant deities in his backstory casually destroyed mountains.
- Proud Warrior Race: What he turned his Gigantes into, after having a Heel Realization / Jerkass Realization. Rather than being brutes they were, Terraton realizes that for him and his chosen people to be greater than The Brute as people, they need to check their worst impulses with a code of honour, while bringing out the best in themselves pursuing honour in both conduct and conflict. Those Gigantes Tribes/Clans/Bands who fall sideways from that in his eyes earns his ire and can either expect having him personally join the side of their enemies in their internecine wars, or Swallowed Whole and spend the rest of their existence inside his endless guts.
- Super Spit: Can fire a stream of molten rock and magma from his throat, out of his maw and onto his enemies at short-to-medium range. He dislikes using this because he feels it's disgusting and unbecoming to use in a fight, and only keep it because he doesn't really have much of a special range attack beyond throwing rocks at an enemy.
- Top God: One of the top leaders of the Pantheon, but not the only one due to the loose association between the Tauren Giant deities. Definitely this among his mortal children.

The Hecatoncheires and their families/allies/minions
General
- Adaptational Expansion: Apart from Briareus who was involved in several more myths, the Hecatoncheires largely disappeared from Classical Mythology after helping the Olympians win the Titanomachy, being lavishly rewarded for it and were deputised as the Titans' jailers. Here, their story, characters and abilities were greatly expanded post-Titanomachy.
- Dark and Troubled Past: Their long imprisonment by their abusive stepdad Ouranos and treacherous half-nephew Cronus had left deep emotional/psychological scars which affected how their characters developed afterwards.
- Death from Above: During the Titanomachy and later conflicts, the Hecatoncheires are fond of doing this, throwing rocks and whatever else they could grab at their foes in a distance. Owing to their size, strength and having a hundred arms and hands each, the resulting rain of giant projectiles can flatten whole regions and decimate their opponents.
- The Dreaded: While their reputation varies depending on Hecatoncheire, all of them are feared by gods and mortals both Giant and Tinies alike, as they are among some of the largest and most powerful Giant deities of their generation. Their presence and participation is often enough to turn the tide of an entire Divine Conflict.
- Healing Factor: Like their mortal subjects, the Hecatoncheires can regenerate any arm or head which are lost in battle or accident given time. Unless they somehow
- Multi-Armed and Dangerous: All the Hecatoncheires and their divine children have many, many pairs of arms as well as heads. The Hecatoncheires themselves have up to fifty pairs of arms to go with their fifty heads. This is not apparent at first glance as they have the ability to magically shunt off their excess heads and arms and only manifest them when needed.
- Multiple Head Case: All the Hecatoncheires and their divine children have many, many heads as well as pairs of arms. The Hecatoncheires themselves have up to fifty heads to go with their fifty pairs of arms. This is not apparent at first glance as they have the ability to magically shunt off their excess heads and arms and only manifest them when needed.
- Small Role, Big Impact: Played Straight and also Subverted. While they joined the Titanomachy relatively late, their help was instrumental in allowing the Olympians to triumph over the Othrysian predecessors. Their entries indicated however they played a much bigger role among Giants and Tinies despite their obscurity in myth.
- Same-Sex Triplets: While they are not identical triplets, the Hecatoncheires are all brothers.
Hecatoncheires
Cottus, the Striking One
Briareus, the Mighty One
Classification: Elemental/Ethereal, Giant, Orthoequid
Portfolio: Polytoncheires, Might, Sea, Honour
Rank: Divine (Tier V/Titan)
Affiliation: Hecatoncheires, Tauren Giant Pantheons, Olympian Pantheon (Formerly)
"Any Giant can destroy and dominate with their size and strength. But to use them to help, to nurture, to create and to protect? This takes true might. In the end, those who are truly mighty are the ones who would leave behind a better world in their wake."
Briareus, the Mighty One (His entry here) is the second oldest member of the Hecatoncheires and considered the largest and strongest among them. As the most reasonable, compassionate and honourable of the three, Briareus is also respected as he is feared, and is more involved in the myths and affairs of gods and mortals both Giant and Tinies alike due to his benevolent desire to help, protect and nurture those less powerful or fortunate than themselves.
- Good Is Not Soft: Unfailingly good-hearted, but still possesses a divine Giant's rage and power and not afraid to use it to pummel those who deserves it. It bears reminding that he and his brothers helped pulverise the Othrysians during the Titanomachy and defeat King Typhaon and his ilk in the Typhonnic Wars.
- Happily Married: To Cymopoleia, the Violent Storm, one of Thalasson/Poseidon's daughters, back when he and the Hecatoncheires were still on good terms with the Olympians.
- Knightly Sword and Shield: Beyond being close to a Knight in Shining Armor in character, Briareus is also a skilled warrior who wears a full mantle of armour and fights with swords and shields - FIFTY swords and shields, on account of being having a hundred hands to hold them.
- Modest Royalty: Despite being the co-parent deity of the Polytoncheires, Briareus doesn't let that get in the way of interacting with his subjects and those smaller and weaker than themselves.
- The Paragon: In addition to always trying to help those smaller and weaker than himself, he also seek to nurture and inspire them to become stronger and do the same for others. Even Olympians like Poseidon acknowledges him to be this.
- Pet the Dog: He's one of the few to have anything good to say for the infamous Kratos, the Ghost of Sparta, as it was Kratos who euthanised his eldest son Aegaeon and released him from his torment as a bound and hollowed out living prison by the corrupted Furies.
- Strong and Skilled: In addition to being the physically strongest Hecatoncheire, he is also a capable warrior who was a veteran of multiple divine and giant conflicts, fights well with swords and shields and is a deadshot with throwing objects/weapons.
- Thicker Than Water: Despite being estrangled with his fellow Hecatoncheires, he still sees them as brothers and hope to reconcile with them. His siblings are implied to feel the same towards him and each other.
- Threatening Mediator: Subverted. While Briareus is feared as a member of the Hecatoncheires, he's just as if not more respected and trusted on account of his good character, and often sought after or volunteer to mediate disputes between gods as well as mortals.
- Token Good Teammate: While Cottus is noted to be belligerent and Gyges a hedonist, Briareus is straight-up noble and kind, and widely perceived as good even by less noble people like the Olympians.
- We Help the Helpless: Having experienced what it means to be helpless and powerless during his and his brothers' long sealing, he do not want anyone to experience the same as he had and sympathises with those who are not as powerful as he is. He and his family are fully dedicated to helping, protecting and nurturing those smaller and weaker than himself.
- We Used to Be Friends: Used to be on good terms with the Olympian Pantheon, even marrying a daughter of Thalasson/Poseidon. Then they did nothing when the corrupted Furies inflicted a disproportionately horrific fate on his eldest son Aegaeon for breaking a blood oath with the gods, leading to a falling out between him and his brothers with the Olympians.
- World's Strongest Man: THE single strongest Polytoncheire in existence, period, and the strongest of Hecatoncheires.
Gyges, the Bold One
The Hecatoncheirae
Oeolyca, the Raging Waves
Enemies
Queen Peínagápia and her family/allies/minions
- See their folder entries here.
Typhoan, Ekhidna and their family/allies/minions
General
- Bastard Bastard: Many of their children were not their spawns with each other but with other partners, and many of them are just as desirous of terrorising, destroying and conquering all in their path like they do.
- The Dreaded: They and their Giant/monstrous offsprings are collectively some of the most feared beings not only among Giantkind but the entire Taurus Peninsula, with even gods being afraid of them.
- Evil Is One Big, Happy Family: Despite their monstrous nature and desire to terrorise, crush and dominate all in their path, Typhoan and Ekhidna as well as their children have a surprisingly functional and loving family dynamic, which is very ironic especially when compared to the likes of the Olympian Pantheon. This is also mythology wise Truth in Television.
- Expy: Codexverse Typhoan and Ekhidna are based on Typhon and Echidna of Greek Mythology and takes their places in the Codexverse, being Giant divines with monstrous natures. There are some traces of their Disney Hercules animated series adaptations.
- Good Parents: Both Typhoan and Ekhidna dote and love their Giant and monstrous children, helped by the fact many of them are as evil as they are.
- Monster Progenitor: Typhoan and Ekhidna are both the progenitors of the terrible Typhoanae and the monstrous Ekhidnae Giants, but also the maker of many monsters in Tauren Mythology.
- Unholy Matrimony: Despite being monstrous and evil beings who loved to terrorise and dominate all in their sight, both Typhaon and Ekhidna do love each other deeply and dote on their children.
King Typhaon, the Titan of Terror
Classification: Ethereal/Elemental, Giant, Dark/Evil, Chimera
Portfolio: Fire, Terror, Domination, Monsters
Rank: Titan
Affiliation: Himself, Queen Ekhidna, Typhoanae/Ekhidnae
King Typhaon (his entry here
) was the progenitor and ruler of a terrible race of Giants with serpentine traits, the Typhaonae, who once terrorised the Tauren Peninsula and its Giant/Tinies' lands. While sealed away several times long ago, he would be released by the time of the Giant Wars in the Fourth Age to terrorise/dominate the world once more with his beloved mate Ekihdna, becoming effectively the co-Final Boss of the conflict.- Affably Evil: Noted like his wife to be surprisingly informal and easygoing, is a sincerely good husband and father to his mate and children, and also a good host to interviewers. He's still a giant destructive terrorising monster of a giant god who likes nothing more than to devour, dominate and destroy all he sees.
- Be Careful What You Wish For: Typhaon was ostrasized by his peers who considers him a monster because of his freakish size and monstrous appearance. It's implied they greatly regretted it when he did embrace being a giant destructive monster for real as they ended up getting Eaten Alive by Typhaon.
- Because I'm Good At It: One of the reasons why he became a destructive terrorising monster other than a case of Then Let Me Be Evil: He was REALLY good at being one. He tried to do or be other things in his youth, but all attempts failed miserably.
- Big Eater: Like many Giant deities, King Typhaon had devoured smaller gods and entire realms in his own gluttonous appetite, having sent uncounted pantheons, nations, and lands down his gullet. He takes it to a whole other level by being big enough to do this consistently to GIANT pantheons, nations, and lands.
- Bigger Is Better in Bed: According to Ekhidna, one of the reasons why she love King Typhaon — other than being a loving husband to her and a good father to their children - was that he was one of the only beings who could truly satisfy her in bed.
- Bully Hunter: Implied to have once been picked on and laughed at for being a 'monster' by his peers in his youth, but got back at them after embracing his own monstrosity. They are still languishing in his belly to this day.
- Caged Inside a Monster: Like many Giant deities his innards are big enough to imprison whole pantheons and nations of devoured gods and mortals, from whom he could draw power from via their divinity and/or terror.
- Card-Carrying Villain: He is a giant monster, knows he's a giant monster, and loves being a giant monster. Helps that he is REALLY good at being one. He did tried to be something other than that when he's young, but all his attempts failed miserably.
- Destructo-Nookie: The first thing he did with Ekihdna after being freed was to make passionate love with her. They laid waste/made use of the Giant kingdom they were in to that end.
- The Dreaded: King Typhaon was so powerful and monstrous a threat the Tauren Giant Pantheon(s) and the Tauren Pantheon had to work together to stop and seal him away. Fearless and mighty Terraton's first reaction when he was released in the Fourth Age was to have a massive Oh, Crap! moment and immediately order his Gigantes and every other heroic Giant and Tinies forces present to retreat ASAP, knowing full well what Typhaon is capable even right out of his box. His domain of Terror actively invokes this by allowing him to magically manipulate and spread terror which could demoralise his foes and terrorise his victims, and empower him further by feeding on it.
- Emotion Eater: His domain of Terror allows him to feed on the terror of others as well as spread it for more power. His domain leans towards Mass Terror in particular, so the more people are terrified of him the more power he receives, which he feeds back into his Terror domain to make his enemies, servants and victims even more terrified of him in a Vicious Cycle.
- Epic Fail: He actually did try to not be what he is now, but all his attempts to be anything other than a giant destructive terrorising monster failed spectacularly. He can't even run a food stand without going bankrupt within a day (and eating the stand and the city he was doing business in out of anger and frustration).
- Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: While his relationship with his mother Gaea remains unclear, he apparently still loves her enough to answer her call and try and pulverise the Olympian Pantheon (as recounted in Fleecean/Tauren Mythology) over transgressions against her. He also often invoke his father Tartaros in his words.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite his titanically monstrous and destructive nature, he truly loved his mate Ekhidna and doted on their children. Helps that most of them are just as monstrous and destructive as he is.
- Even Evil Has Standards: Played for Laughs. In a Shout-Out to his Disney incarnation even he doesn't like lawyers, considering them perfectly acceptable targets to pick on in his rampages and only doesn't eat them because they cause indigestion.Prince Fulgar: Stop right there, Typhoan! Put down those innocent Taurens!King Typhaon: Give me a break! They're lawyers!Prince Fulgar: Well... oh, put them down anyways! Besides, you know they give you gas.King Typhaon: Oh, right! I forgot about that... [Tosses them away] Good point!
- Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Being bitter and resentful over being ostrasized as a monster and failing to be anything other than that, he firmly believes that it's in Giants' inherent nature to be destructive tyrants and any attempts to transcend it as a waste of time and effort as well as doomed to fail in the long run. Because of this, he would be stupefied and shocked whenever some benevolent Giant actually managed to pull it off.
- Final Boss: Serves as one with Queen Ekhidna for the Giant Wars, having been released later in the event and rally/subjugated the losing tyrannical and destructive giant factions to his side.
- God of Evil: Typhaon is a destructive terrorising monstrous Giant divine and in many ways an embodiment of the worst traits of Giantkind.
- Good Parents: He is a surprisingly doting and loving parent. This applies to even his mate's bastards she spawned in his absence, excusing them despite not being his on the grounds that since they are her children, they are also his, and quickly got along with them once they reveal themselves to be just as terrorising, destructive and conquering in character as he does.
- Large and in Charge: He is huge even by Giant divine standards, being called the 'Titan of Terror', so tall that his head seem to 'brush against the stars' and could toss Giant deities like Terraton around as if they are dolls. He is not only the progenitor and ruler of the Typhoanae Giants, but also ended becoming the de-facto leader of all the villainous Giants and other monsters with his mate Ekhidna later in the Giant Wars, effectively becoming the co-'Final Boss' of the conflicts.
- Laughably Evil: He's a giant monster and proud of it, but has plenty of fun characteristics, being a hammy, boisterous and conceited wisecracker with a wicked sense of humour, sounding like someone who REALLY likes his hobby/job.
- Mix-and-Match Critters: He's a mix of equine with serpents and dragons, and through his Monster domain can transform into even more stupefying and terrifying chimerical monster forms, complete with some of said monsters' abilities.
- Mysterious Past: His origins and backstory is unclear, but leans towards him being the spawn of Gaea of the Earthen Triplets and Tartaros, the Black Abyss (whom many Hell-Realms and Prison Planes like the one in Equestria is named after).
- Noodle Incident: Several are mentioned in his entry. One is his attempt to defeat Zeus and destroy Mount Olympus for his mother as recounted in Fleecean Mythology in the Second Age, which eventually got him sealed away briefly under Mt Etna. He and Ekhidna also fought a great war against other Giant and Tinies pantheons in Taurus and beyond at some point in the past.
- Person of Mass Destruction: While Giant deities are all this by default to anyone and anything smaller than they are, Typhaon takes this to whole new levels with his sheer monstrous proportions and power. Some lands and pantheons are so thoroughly destroyed by him virtually no trace or memory of them remain in the present day.
- Really Gets Around: It's implied beyond his wife, Typhoan slept with many divines, giants and other monstrous beings, spawning many monsters. When his wife remorsefully admitted to her 'infidelity' in his absence and her loneliness, Typhoan rather than angry was very understanding of her situation, admitting that he would had done the same thing in her place.
- Sealed Evil in a Can: King Typhaon was sealed away ages back (and apparently multiple times), but was released again in the Fourth Age by her mate Queen Ekhidna during the Giant Wars.
- Then Let Me Be Evil: One of his reasons for becoming the monster he is today is because he was ostrasized by others for his monstrous appearance and strength when he was younger, no matter what he did to change that, and so he decided that he might as well go full throttle on it. That he was REALLY good at being a destructive terrorising monster was another factor.
Queen Ekhidna, Mother of Monsters
Classification: Giant, [TBA]
Portfolio: Ekhidnae, Monsters, Parenthood[TBA]
Rank: [TBA]
Queen Ekhidna (first introduced here
) is the monstrous Giant divine mate of the infamous King Typhoan who long sought to free her husband from his sealing — and eventually succeeds by the time of the "Giant Wars".- Destructo-Nookie: The first thing she did with King Typhaon after freeing him was to make passionate love with him. They laid waste/made use of the Giant kingdom they were in to that end.
- The Dreaded: Implied, given her title as well as the fact she is King Typhaon's mate.
- Large and in Charge: She is implied to be huge even by Giant divine standards, being able to stand as equals with her beloved husband King Typhaon, and was not only the queen of the monstrous Ekhidnae Giants but also become the de-facto leader of all the villainous Giants and other monsters with her mate later in the Giant Wars, effectively becoming the co-'final boss' of the conflicts.
- Really Gets Around: It's implied beyond her husband she slept with many divines, giants and other monstrous beings, especially during his long absences sealed away in her loneliness without him. This left her rather remorseful when she admitted the latter part to Typhoan, but he was very understanding and admitted he would had done the same thing in her place.
Others
Miscellaneous
Eiríni, the Warrior of Peace
Classification: Ethereal
Portfolio: Peace, Mercy, Fire
Rank: Divine (Tier III/Greater)
"The abuse of strength can bring conflict. But with proper usage... they can bring peace."
Eiríni (his entry here
) is the Cyclops god of Peace, Mercy, and Fire, and is the divine twin brother of Dikastís, the Aload god of Justice.- Always Identical Twins: Averted. He and his brother Dikastís are fraternal twins, and as noted in their entries, they each have enough unique physical traits that allow them to be recognized as their own person. In fact, the brothers aren't even of the same races, with him being an Aload while Eiríni is a Cyclops.
- Anthropomorphic Personification: Embodies Peace, Mercy, and Fire.
- Barrier Warrior: His entry mentions that he knows a large variety of barrier spells, ranging from normal to reflective.
- Beware the Nice Ones: As the god of Peace and Mercy, he's very compassionate, protective, and merciful, and believes that all lives are worth saving and protecting, even those who are deemed "evil" by others. However, he is an ancient and powerful god in his own right, and will use lethal force if he has to, as Poena learned the hard way when she attacked him for being merciful towards a condemned Minotaur overlord.
- Curb-Stomp Cushion: His entry notes that he would get into a lot of fights with Poena, the goddess of Punishment, over their differing views of how one should deliver justice and punishment. One in particular started over the fate of defeated Minotaur overlord, Katápnixi the Kingbreaker; by the time it ended, Poena was left unconscious and battered in a crater... though Eiríni himself also suffered burns and lacerations that took him a while to recover from.
- Healing Hands: One of the things his signature spell can do is heal injuries.
- Holy Hand Grenade: One of the things his signature spell can do is dispel corrupting influences from his targets. This would prove useful during the "War on Chaos" event where he freed and purified many of Discord's victims, and even redeemed one of his "Lords of Disorder". His entry notes that the former Lord of Disorder did a Heel–Face Turn thanks to him, and is now the angelic guardian of a monster sanctuary he set up for those monsters he befriended and redeemed.
- Identical Twin ID Tag: Averted with him and Dikastís. Despite them being twin brothers, they are significantly different from each other in appearance - Dikastís is a muscular Aload divine with a red pelt and a black mane and tail, while Eiríni is a white-furred and white-haired divine Cyclops whose pelt and hair changes colors whenever he accesses his two Super Modes.
- The Magnificent: Known as "the Warrior of Peace", due to being a skilled mage/fighter with a kind and merciful personality.
- Martial Pacifist: He sees violence and lethal force as things that only should be used as a last resort when there's no other choice left, such as a foe defying all attempts to be pacified peacefully and/or proving themselves to be utterly evil and unrepentant. His entry notes that he willingly sealed off a portion of his offensive power so he can only use them if he unlocks the seal.
- Meaningful Name: His name means "peace" in Greek, which fits him as he's a god of Peace and the compassionate, merciful side of the ancient Giant god Thrýlos.
- White Hair, Black Heart: Averted. Despite having a white pelt and a white mane and tail, he is an incredibly compassionate Cyclops divine, being the god of Peace and Mercy. He represents the merciful half of the ancient Giant god Thrýlos, and would rather save innocent lives and resolve conflicts peacefully rather than pursue the extreme and harsh justice that puristic Knight Templars like Poena favor.
Dikastís the Just
Classification: Ethereal
Portfolio: Justice, Protection, Strength
Rank: Divine (Tier IV/Greater)
"Justice must be firm, but fair."
Dikastís (his entry here
) is the Aload god of Justice, Protection, and Strength, and is the divine twin brother of Eiríni, the Cyclops god of Peace and Mercy.- Always Identical Twins: Averted. He and his brother Eiríni are fraternal twins, and as noted in their entries, they each have enough unique physical traits that allow them to be recognized as their own person. In fact, the brothers aren't even of the same races, with him being an Aload while Eiríni is a Cyclops.
- Anthropomorphic Personification: Embodies Justice, Protection, and Strength.
- Barrier Warrior: His entry notes that as the god of Protection, he is capable of creating powerful defensive barriers.
- Birds of a Feather: Subverted. Despite Poena embodying Justice and using more hardlined and lethal tactics in punishing evildoers as he does, he does not get along with Poena as she thinks he should. The reason for this is, while their goals sometimes do align, he thinks that Poena's actions and methods in punishment are far more extreme and ruthless, and he believes that being excessive in Justice serves no true purpose. This has resulted in them clashing as much as they work together.
- Large and in Charge: Is an Aload Giant deity and thus titanic even by godly standards. He is also a divine arbiter of justice among Aload Giantkind and a major leadership figure, with many Aload Giants following him into a war against the Cloven Empire.
- The Magnificent: Known as "the Just", due to embodying Justice yet being firm and fair in his judgments.
- Meaningful Name: His name means "judge" in Greek, which fits him since he's a god of Justice with a firm yet fairer view of what justice should be.
- Properly Paranoid: Deconstructed. Having spared Lord Tirek when he was young out of mercy, he greatly regretted it after seeing what villainy he wrought afterwards. When the People's Empire of the Cloven came along, he decided not to take any chances and went on the warpath against them with his followers and other Aload Giants, triggering the Aload-Clovenist War.
- Red and Black and Evil All Over: Subverted hard. Despite being an Aload divine with a red pelt and a black mane and tail, he embodies noble concepts such as Justice, Protection, and Strength, and he's a benevolent and heroic, if stoic and no-nonsense individual. And because of his views on justice, he often clashes with the hard-lined and puristic Poena, and doesn't get along with her as well as she thinks he does or should.
