Representing the schools of the Source, the Colossi are a pantheon of gigantic gods who walk the world of Koldenwelt. The oldest generation of them, known as the Old Colossi, are believed to have participated in the creation of the world, though most of them died during the wars against demonkind. Following the defeat of Caligaduro Provectus at the end of the Adamantine Age, a new generation of gods known as the New Colossi was slowly given existence, replacing the spots left by their deceased predecessors. The Colossi tend to keep to themselves are typically don't involve themselves in mortal affairs, but when the world is threatened by the forces from beyond the Material Plane, they serve as Koldenwelt's last line of defense.

- Our Gods Are Different: They rule over the Material plane, with the Old Colossus being implied to have been involved in its creation.
- Physical God: Each Colossus is a divinity, having full control over their schools of the Source at the same level of power the other planes' Simulacra. They are the greatest gods of the Material Plane, with minor deities being beneath their power.

- Red Baron: The First Flame, King of Fire.
- Volcanic Veins: His body is described as having these, which let out a powerful glow. Given he was the god of fire, it's not surprising to imagine he had magma for blood.
Vulcardentron, New Colossus of Fire
Accidentally created when Vulcaraptor shamans attempted to harness the power of the Heart of Venertimanoth, Vulcardentron is the New Colossus of Fire and the ruler of the southern Slumbering Island. A massive tusked reptile, he periodically leaves his nest in the volcanic south in order to hunt for food, swiping down at the island's dinosaurs and devouring them as if they were insects. Each time he goes to feed, great devastation follows due to his huge size and power over flame.

Water
Tritonomarth, Old Colossus of Water
The first god of the seas and the largest of all Colossi, Tritonomarth is the Old Colossus of Water and is credited in some creation myths as having created the world's oceans. He was so humongous that other Old Colossi could comfortably lay on his body, and he dedicated his existence to protecting Koldenwelt from his arch-enemy, the Simulacrum of madness Varagarash Narahil.
- Arch-Enemy: Varagarash Narahil was this to him, and the feeling was mutual. Tritonomarth eventually defeated him, though he died to see it done.

Tangilaruka, New Colossus of Water
Born from an egg created from Tritonomarth's dying energies, Tangilaruka is the New Colossus of Water and matriarch of the Khrokar race.

- The Speechless: Unlike most Colossi, she can't speak due to having never been taught language.
- Threatening Shark: Much more so than Tritonomarth. Tangilaruka attacks ships to feed, completely disregarding who they may belong to.
- Wild Child: Her apparent lack of sapience is due to being born alone in the oceans, surrounded by nothing but fish. She has the potential of gaining a great mind, but none have been able to help her, partially due to how dangerous she is.
Wind
Constarnach, Old Colossus of Wind
The first griffon, Constarnach is the Old Colossus of Wind. A haughty entity, he ruled over a city of clouds in the skies, served by a race of mythical eagle men and being largely unconcerned with the affairs of the surface.

- Blow You Away: As the Colossus of Wind, he was the god of all aeromancy. He used his mighty power over the air to create a civilization in the skies.

- Flaying Alive: He was subject to this at the hands of Behesanguis, eventually leading to his death.
- Jerkass Gods: He was haughty and full of himself, believing he was above the conflicts of the surface world. He never lent the other gods any help during the demons war because of this.

Unlike his predecessor, Emryredin is far more humble, and welcomes those who would like to commune with him at the Silver Steppe.

- Red Baron: The Great Wild One, The Lord Above the Mountain.
Earth
Korddraigen, Old Colossus of Earth
Among the first dragons of the world, Korddraigen was the Old Colossus of Earth, representing the Koldenwelti soil's stability and fertility.

Arddraigr was created out of the pieces of Korddraigren's body preserved by the ancient Klaxxa and seeded in the volcanic caves of Ar-Klith, and as such inherits her power over the Koldenwelti soil - but not her stoic and serene nature. Representing the earth's fury and power, Arddraigr is far more quick to act, and controls more violent aspects of earth - as such, his body is formed from magma and molten metal and radiates a fiery aura. Still, Arddraigr is a being fighting on the side of good, and much like his mother he will go to great lengths to protect Koldenwelt and its denizen from all threats.
- Dishing Out Dirt: As the current Colossus of Earth, he holds divine power over all Earth Magic.

He is highly revered by multiple cultures across the north, including the Néva, the Arakai, the Septentrions and some of the cultures within Talmyr.

Relanvadur, Old Colossus of Lightning
Relanvadur was a massive bird of prey and the Old Colossus of Lightning. An entity of curious behavior, he spent his existence away from the other gods, launching blasts of lightning at the surface in order to "energize" it. To this day, none of the other gods are exactly sure what Relanvadur was attempting to do.
- Blue-and-Orange Morality: Unlike the other gods, he paid very little attention to anything other than his attempts to "energize" the world by constantly launching lighting shocks at its surface, seemingly behaving in a completely alien mindset compared to the other Colossi. Whatever he was trying to do, it probably didn't work.

- Our Dwarves Are All the Same: Well, for one, this one is a god and is over a hundred meters tall, far bigger than the average dwarf. In terms of personality, though, he's pretty much the standard, which likely makes him a role model for all the other dwarves who act the same.
- Papa Wolf: He considers all dwarves his children, and woe is whoever tries to hurt them. Under his guidacnce, he helped the ancient Dweorg rebel against their Ordnung masters. As shown by his battle with Draethos, he's willing to fight even other gods to protect dwarvenkind.

- Red Baron: The Thunderous Hammer.
- Shock and Awe: As the New Colossus of Lightning, he is the current god of all Lightning Magic.

He has also been said to be able to shapeshift into a normal-sized dwarf, which he has used to consort with mortal women, leading to the birth of children with divine blood and power. One example of such individuals is Kvo Eirik.

Ahthinyearath, Old Colossus of Sand
The first Sand Drake, said to have been born frm an egg laid by Korddraigen, Ahthinyearath is the Old Colossus of Sand. She created the rest of the Sand Drakes by breathing life into the sands, and lived in harmony with her children until she fell to the claws of Khuamkira, the Crux.

The New Colossus of Sand, Almonohuim resembles a gigantic cobra made out of sand, rocks and all else that becomes stuck on his hide when he passes through a region. He commands over the Snake People known as the Man-Serpents, and unknowingly created the Merovar race when he shed his skin.

Nature Magic
Flora
Eondrassilia, Old Colossus of Flora
Eondrassilia is the Old Colossus of Flora, and unlike the others, who typically take the form of fantastic beings, she was a plant. A tree of titanic size, whose branches were said to pierce the sky and whose roots were claimed to dig enough to reach the world's center, she is often said to have been the creator of all non-sapient lifeforms at the dawn of time.
- Green Thumb: She was the first Colossus of Flora, the school of magic dedicated to plants. Due to the identity of the New Colossus still being unknown, she's the only Colossus with this position so far.

Poison
Teratoma, Old Colossus of Poison
A gigantic mushroom controlling the body of a massive spider-like monster, Teratoma is the Old Colossus of Poison. As the old world's main beacon of venomancy, Teratoma's mere presence was enough to poison the very land beneath him, though he did not do so intentionally; rather, he lacked the ability to control his godly power, and the destruction he caused led him to become a depressed and hated creature in the old world.
- Driven to Suicide: After living a tortured existence, he eventually had enough and threw himself into the ocean, drowning to death.
- Fungus Humongous: The true Teratoma was a mushroom which stood roughly 150 meters tall.

- Posthumous Character: Has been dead for an unknown period of time, likely tens of thousands of years.
- Red Baron: The Plague Bearer, The Fungus of Death, The World Spore, The One Who Fears.
Xitannoth, New Colossus of Poison
The youngest of the New Colossi, Xitannoth is the current god of Poison Magic. Resembling a monstrous pterosaur, this fiendish entity differs from the other earthly gods for the sadistic amusement he takes in tormenting mortals. He is credited as being responsible for turning the region of Qliphoth into a toxic wasteland, leading to great suffering to the Oevrumine people.

- The Dragon: Served as this to Analuhati in Koldenwelt during his existence.
- Elemental Embodiment: He was a monstrous and colossal blood elemental.
- Flaying Alive: His preferred method of finishing off his enemies. He did this both to Constarnach (who he stole the skin of and wore it as a cape for the rest of his existence) and Relanvadur (he couldn't wear his hide as it electrocuted him when he tried).

Sihilienu, the Old Colossus of Light, was an enigmatic creature of no discernible likeness to beings of Koldenwelt and roamed the distant skies of the planet far from the other Colossi in a constant peaceful voyage. The Colossus of Light's end came as it was attacked and left for dead by the dragon form of Caligaduro Provectus, causing it to die slowly in agony over the course of many days.

Siivhahzin, Old Colossus of Darkness
Born from the sins of the ancient immortals, Siivhahzin is the Old Colossus of Darkness and the father of the Linnwyrm dragons. With an infinite hatred for all - be it Koldenwelt or the planes beyond -, he sought the destruction of all life.

Draethos, New Colossus of Darkness
Draethos is the New Colossus of Darkness. Resembling a monstrous hydra, with each of his seven heads representing one of mortalkind's greatest vices, he attempted to force the world under his rule, with the belief that a world drowned in darkness was preferable to one fallen to the corruption of the Simulacra. His physical form would be shattered during a cataclysmic battle with fellow Colossus Thunardormir, though his spirit lingers on and his heads would each assume a corporeal form of their own, independent from one another and with various degrees of awareness over their Colossal origin.
- Behemoth Battle: His battle with Thunardormir, the colossal god of lightning.
- Casting a Shadow: As the Colossus of Darkness, he held divine power over umbramancy.
- Dark Is Not Evil: While extremely ruthless and close-minded, he was inspired by dreams of Old Colossal heroes and genuinely believed what he did was the best for the world, which is a contrast to Siivhahzin.
- He Who Fights Monsters: He was afraid of a world enslaved by the dark gods of the beyond... so he attempted to do it himself. When he realized it, he lost it.

- Multiple Head Case: He was a hydra with seven heads, each vaguely independent though usually sharing the same goal.
- My Death Is Just the Beginning: An interesting case, as it was completely unintentional of Draethos' part. After he died, portions of his essence reincarnated into numerous entities, some of which are genuinely evil, which can't be said for Draethos himself.
- My God, What Have I Done?: He realized he had become as bad as the Simulacra he sought to fight while battling Thunardormir. He decided the best course of action was to let the dwarven god kill him.
- Necromancer: He had power over necromancy and much of his army was composed of undead.
- Posthumous Character: Notably the only New Colossus to be dead, in his case after a fight with Thunardormir.
- Red Baron: The Dread Hydra, The Seven Deadly Sins.
- Seven Deadly Sins: It's said each of his head represented one of mortalkind's greatest vices, and were individually empowered by cultists practicing said vices in their names.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: While he attempted to enslave the world with an army of darkness worshipping cultists and undead beasts, he honestly thought it was preferable to a world ruled by the Simulacra.
