Other Characters

Proto-Universe

    Tehom 

Tehom was the entity of darkness and chaos that existed before the universe. She and Yahweh fought for control of reality, which ended with her demise.

  • Ancient Evil: Tehom embodied the primordial darkness and chaos that existed before the Universe. Yahweh (God) had to kill her to start the Creation of the Cosmos.

  • The Anti-God: As a being of darkness, chaos, and evil, Tehom was the opposite of Yahweh since He represents light, order, and goodness. Eventually, they fought each other in the Primeval Battles for control of reality.

  • Dark Is Evil: She was the embodiment of darkness and was a terrible, monstrous foe that God had to fight before the universe could exist.

  • Eldritch Abomination: Tehom, the Abyss, was an entity that existed before the creation of the universe, in a state of reality absent of space, time, and matter. As the embodiment of primordial darkness and chaos, the angels described her as more like a force or a concept than an actual being.

  • Evil Counterpart: She was the conceptual opposite and enemy of God.

  • The Ghost: Tehom is only mentioned in the chronology chapter, before the creation of the universe, when she fights God in the Primeval Battles and ends up defeated. After that, she is not mentioned again in any other book.

  • God of Darkness: Tehom is the embodiment of darkness and chaos that existed before the Universe. She acts as the conceptual opposite and enemy of God.

  • Meaningful Name: Tehom (Hebrew: תְּהוֹם *təhôm*) is a Northwest Semitic and Biblical Hebrew word meaning "the deep” or “abyss”. It is used to describe the primeval ocean and the post-creation waters of the earth.

  • Primordial Chaos: Tehom embodied the primordial chaos and destructive forces from the era before the universe. Yahweh, the god of order and light, had to kill her to start the Creation of the Universe.

    Monster-Gods 

The Monster Gods were descendants of Tehom, the Darkness, created to aid her in the Primeval Battles against Yahweh and his archangels. Although hundreds or thousands were created, five stood out: Behemot, Enuma, Leviathan, Tanin, and Taurt.

In General

  • Always Chaotic Evil: As the spawn of the entity of primordial chaos and darkness, the Monster Gods fought against order, goodness and light.

  • Artifact of Doom: Each one of them received a powerful sword from Tehom, created to kill the archangels of Yahweh. Behemot’s sword, the Dark Fire, fell into the hands of Lucifer, who then passed it on to his greatest champion, Apollyon.

  • Eldritch Abomination: These abominations were created in an era before the beginning of existence. Like their progenitor, they had no shape or dimension.
  • Meaningful Name: The names of Behemot, Leviathan, Tannin and Taurt come from mythological beasts of evil and chaos. Enuma, the other Monster God, recieved his name from the Babylonian creation myth.

  • Time Abyss: They were created by Tehom before the beginning of the Universe.

Enuma

The Destroyer. He was the last of the Monster Gods, created by Tehom to aid her in the Primeval Battles against Yahweh. He was the only survivor of the conflict, escaping into the darkest corners of the Universe.

  • Avenging the Villain: After Yahweh fell asleep, he took the opportunity to attack the Seven Heavens as revenge for the death of his mother and siblings.

  • Last of His Kind: He was the last of the Monster Gods in existence, as all others were killed during the Primeval Battles. His death at the beginning of the Seventh Day (200,000 BC) marked the extinction of the Children of Tehom.

  • Monster Progenitor: The great majority of the Great Ancients, evil abominations that permeate the Universe, are offspring of Enuma.

  • Mother of a Thousand Young: After escaping from the archangels following the creation of the Universe, Enuma hid in the darkest corners of the Cosmos. For billions of years, the Destroyer gave birth to hundreds, if not thousands, of monstrous beings known as the Great Ancients.

  • Sole Survivor: He is the only Monster-God who survive the Primeval Battles.

    Great Ancients 

Known to the angels as Grandchildren of Tehom or to antediluvian sorcerers as Demons of the Ancient Night, they are monstrous and abyssal beings born from the "eggs" of the Monster Gods and are descendants of Tehom. They are scattered throughout the Cosmos, inhabiting the deepest pits of galaxies.

  • Almighty Idiot: Yina-Dorath is a living column of light that can destroy planets with ease. It seeks to blow up the Earth, but, as it is blind, it has not yet found it.

  • Ancient Astronauts: Some of them, like Gabu and Onhg, visited the planet in the past and were worshipped by the antediluvian nations.

  • Animalistic Abomination: Nayra is described in ancient texts as a giant spider with an enlarged belly that hunted and devoured primitive humans who explored its caves. Ereshki Ghal has a body similar to a crab, with many claws, pincers and mouths.

  • Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: 3 is a colossal worm about the size of a solar system that"digs" holes in the fabric of space, transitioning between physical reality and parallel dimensions.

  • Blue-and-Orange Morality: Like their physical forms, the minds of the Great Ancients are also confusing. While the majority hated the angels because of the past fights between their progenitors (Yahweh and Tehom), some had affective relationships with the celestials and human beings.

  • Eldritch Abomination: The Great Ancients are horrendous beings spread across the Cosmos. Those born in the early days of Creation have abstract and shapeless features, while the younger ones have more humane patterns.

  • The Greys: Onhg and his (likely) offspring, the Yogoths, are humanoid, bipedal beings with a gray head and large eyes. They visited the planet in the old days and were mistaken for aliens.

  • Hell Is That Noise: Sgoruathym is an invisible, insubstantial and odorless entity, perceived as a deafening noise, according to angels who have already encountered it. His "death trumpets" are capable of driving anyone insane.

  • Humanoid Abomination: Gabu has the body of a human and the head of an elephant. Given that the nation he was worshipped was located in South Asia, he probably inspired the Hindu god Ganesha.

  • Omnicidal Maniac: Yina-Dorath wants to destroy the Earth, but as he is blind, he still hasn't found it yet. It is theorized that 3, by punching holes in the fabric of space, wants to destroy the Universe completely.

  • Sentient Stars: Chync'eyya is a flaming orb made of red flames, like a star with a crimson aspect. When close to an enemy, it approaches with thunderous speed and explodes on top of its rivals.

  • You Are Number 6: There’s a giant space worm called 3.

Cosmic Monsters

    In General 

    Ferrymen 

These entities, classified as Cosmic Monsters, are mysterious beings found sailing the River Styx, leading anyone who pays with life energy.

  • Eldritch Abomination: Nobody knows who they are, where they came from (theories exist that they are from a universe that preceded the current one) or what their goals are. They are the only ones who know the River Styx and who can safely navigate its waters.

  • The Ferryman: These beings have an affinity for the River Styx, knowing the bloody waters better than anyone does. They accept to take anyone who pays with life energy on boats known as leviathans.

  • Soul Eating: They only accept life energy (be it from angels, demons, human souls, etc.) as payment for their guiding services across the River Styx.

  • The Voiceless: They were never seen talking to their payers or even to each other. It is unknown if they cannot speak or if they just choose not to communicate with other beings.

  • Time Abyss: According to theories, they came from a universe before the current one, escaping its destruction by dispersing all their vital energy.
