13
14	The kami of a lake on an uninhabited island south of Japan, mate to the river kami who shares the island, Tinlet. He appears as a tall and elegant human male with long blonde hair and blue eyes, and a fetish for jewellery. More reticent than his bubbly mate, Rune demands a price for the magic healing of his waters. \

19
20	* TheAgeless: He is one of the kami and appears perpetually young.
21	* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: He’s a lake, but like most kami he appears in a [[{{AnthropomorphicPersonification}} humanoid form]] for dealing with mortals.
22	* BewareTheNiceOnes
23	** RageBreakingPoint: Rune takes things in stride only so far, and then, boom -
24	** UnstoppableRage: A hurricane sounds pretty "unstoppable", and is his go-to method of getting people off his island.
25	* CostumePorn: Prefers long, flowing garments.
26	* DoNotTauntCthulhu: [[spoiler: Seto]] learned the hard way that Rune is much, much more powerful than he looks.
27	* DudeLooksLikeALady: The hair decs in his long hair probably don't help.
28	* ElementalEyeColors: He has very blue eyes to match his water kami nature.
29	* GodNeedsPrayerBadly: When his island had been abandoned and avoided for a few decades because of his bouts of wrath to drive away those he didn't want there, he starts fading away. It turns out that he needs to heal people and answer prayers to maintain his connection to the mortal world and not go to sleep like so many other kami.
30	* HappilyMarried: To Tintlet, the kami of the river that shares his island.
31	* HealingSpring: In exchange for an offering, Rune can heal pretty much anything up to and including total immolation of the body.
32	* MakingASplash: He is a water kami. Water is his weapon.
33	* NatureSpirit / GeniusLoci: He is the sentient soul of the lake.
34	* OddFriendship / InterspeciesFriendship: Saitou seems to actually be his friend, odd as that seems, since Saitou is originally a JerkAss irreverent mortal human with rough edges and Rune is an ancient refined lake god.

43
44	A river kami who lives on the same island as Rune, she appears as a beautiful human princess with blue eyes and waves of white-blonde hair. Outgoing and very happy. \
45	\
46	\
47
48	-----
49
50	* TheAgeless: She is one of the kami and permanently youthful.
51	* CostumePorn: Enjoys dressing in the elaborate kimono and gowns given to the waters as offerings.
52	* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: She’s a river, but like most kami she appears in a [[{{AnthropomorphicPersonification}} humanoid form]] for dealing with mortals.
53	* ElementalEyeColors: Like every other water kami, her eyes are very blue.
54	* HappilyMarried: To the lake-kami Rune.
55	* HealingSpring: Played with. She is concerned less with healing the physical body like Rune is, but in healing the mental and psychological health of her petitioners.
56	* NatureSpirit / GeniusLoci: She is the sentient soul of the river.

64
65	The kami of a mountain off the coast of Rune's island. Friendly to though has little interaction with humans, and enjoys decorating himself with ores pulled up from the depths of the planet. \

70
71	* TheAgeless: He is one of the kami and appears perpetually young.
72	* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: He’s a mountain, but like most kami he appears in a [[{{AnthropomorphicPersonification}} humanoid form]] for dealing with mortals.
73	* BewareTheNiceOnes: Is friendly if distant, unless you try to mine him.
74	** RocksFallEveryoneDies: A rather literal example of what happens if you do try to dig out his pretties.
75	* NatureSpirit / GeniusLoci: He is the sentient soul of the mountain.

89
90	* TheAgeless: He is one of the kami and appears perpetually young if he bothers to take a human form.
91	* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: Averted - most of the time he can't be bothered.
92	* UnstoppableRage: What happens if you annoy him to the point of erupting.
93	* DoNotTauntCthulhu: Unless you happen to like spontaneous lava baths.
94	* NatureSpirit / GeniusLoci: He is the sentient soul of a volcano.

102	->Original: ''Characters/PetShopOfHorrors''
103
104	--> ''"What have your human masters ever done for you?"''
105
106	Known as "D", he is a Wrathful kami raising an army of youkai to destroy humanity in 2014.\
107	\
108	\
109
110	-----
111	* AmbiguousGender: Referred to as a male, but might just be the default. Honestly, from a kami, can you tell? Does it matter?
112	** OtherworldlyAndSexuallyAmbiguous: Is an extremely androgynous minor god, and is [[{{DudeLooksLikeALady}} mistaken for female]] at first.
113	* BadassPacifist: Played with. A strange twist in that while he doesn’t fight, period - he comes across almost defenseless and all he does is talk to people and inspire them (his words are [[{{CharmPerson}} extremely convincing]]) - what he’s inspiring them to is violence.
114	* CharmPerson: His words or voice are compelling, to the point that he talked his way past both Aoshi and Atem on his way into the country.
115	* DissonantSerenity: While his recruits are performing violence, he's just there, smiling and watching. Possibly actually subverted into TranquilFury.
116	* FriendToAllLivingThings: Being a kami, his affinity for lesser animals also extends to ''people''. He seems to focus more on animal-type youkai.
117	* GaiasVengeance: He's introduced gathering an army of those closer to nature to rise against humans.
118	* MarkOfTheSupernatural: His eyes don't match, and he is a kami after all. At any rate, one is violet and the other is [[{{SupernaturalGoldEyes}} gold]].
119	* NatureSpirit: He is described as a personification of a concept rather than a place, unlike most of the other kami seen. He is a guardian of wild spaces or the concept of wilderness.
120	* RageBreakingPoint: Other characters say that as a kami he has entered his Wrathful aspect due to centuries of testing humans and finding them unworthy. He doesn't bring it up at all himself.
121	** TranquilFury: He still appears very calm.
122	* SweetTooth: People who watch him make tea tend to end up revolted when they see the sugar that goes into it.
123	* WellIntentionedExtremist: He believes his crusade to destroy humanity is justified for the sake of the natural world.

129	!!'''Kaworu'''
130	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/658f598e0ee677b29e2fc92dbc1e7ba3.jpg]]
131	->Original: ''Characters/NeonGenesisEvangelion''
132
133	--> '' "The further you look, the more turtles you will find." ''
134
135	Lover of art and artists, Kaworu is a purveyor of inspiration and a master of the CrypticConversation. However his true motives remain unknown to all but himself. \
136	\
137	\
138
139	-----
140
141	* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: It’s fairly certain that Kaworu’s true form isn’t an albino human teenager.
142	** WingedHumanoid: He can appear as a human teenager with six huge feathered wings.
143	* AngelUnaware: Played with. Its always known that he's supernatural, but what flavor of supernatural is left ambiguous until Yue comes along.
144	* BatmanGambit: He sets up people like dominoes and flicks one here and there... For shits and giggles, apparently.
145	* BigBrotherMentor: He's a mentor to Yue, teaching him how to fly "as an angel" and other things important for him to know.
146	** MrExposition: He explains to other characters what angels actually are, what Yue actually is, and does a lot of explaining of the world to Yue.
147	* BlueAndOrangeMorality: His actions, even those that seem everyday and ordinary, have an edge of 'creepy' commented on by Saitou especially.
148	* CrypticConversation: What he says and what the other characters hear aren't always the same thing.
149	** Very fond of MathematiciansAnswer, much to Saitou’s frustration.
150	* IntriguedByHumanity: Enjoys watching people, especially artists, and 'reading' them by studying their art.
151	** EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory: To Kaworu art, no matter how obscure, is the truest way to comprehend someone.
152	* OmniscientMoralityLicense: Possibly with a heavy helping of InMysteriousWays
153	* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Everyone assumes he's one of the kami, but as the story goes on it's revealed he is actually an angel. At least enough of one to give Yue flying lessons. Unlike traditional angels, though, he keeps his wings hidden and spends his time hanging around with artists and drinking extremely rare coffee blends.
154	* PowerGlows: Downplayed. It's subtle but he does glow when he's using his power.
155	* TimeTravel / DimensionalTraveller: [[spoiler: Implied. He claims to have 'world wings' and 'time wings' for travelling to different places and times.]]
156	* TheTrickster: A subtle example. It's hard to tell if he has a goal in his actions or he's trolling. Possibly both.

162	!!'''The Earthkami / [[spoiler:Darien Shields]]'''
163	%% https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Himura_Kenshin_7028.jpg
164	->Original: [[spoiler: ''Characters/SailorMoon'']]
165
166	%% --> ''"quote goes here"''
167
168	The Earthkami is, as the name suggests, the kami of the very earth itself, basically the quintessential earth deity known to many cultures. \
169	\
170	\
171
172	-----
173	Earthkami
174
175	* AnthropomorphicPersonification: He ''is'' the Earth. Literally. He just happens to [[{{AFormYouAreComfortableWith}} look like a person]].
176	* BadassPacifist: He doesn’t raise a hand to any of his enemies; all he does is talk. And he wins.
177	* BreakThemByTalking: With just a couple sentences, he's able to completely break Yoko no Kurama's fighting spirit. He also talks down D, in between their respective forces.
178	* DistressedDude: It's revealed that the purpose of nature kami is to guard and protect him, because "the Earth cannot protect itself". If someone were out to harm him, or doing it unintentionally out of thoughtlessness, he would be helpless on his own to stop them.
179	* GaiasRevenge: Defied, being that he ''is'' "Gaia", and he woke up specifically to stop the “revenge”.
180	* GodInHumanForm: He spends eternity living mortal lives. Not always “human”, of course.
181	* IHaveManyNames: The Earthkami, Tsuchi-no-Mikoto, Geb, Chikyuu, Diqiu zunjing-shen, [[spoiler: Darien Shields]]
182	* LivingLegend: Renowned and spoken of in the legends of cultures all around the world in the form of the known earth deities. The kami and other immortals that the characters meet speak of him with reverence, though mortals find the idea of his actual existence hard to believe.
183	* MotherNature: A genderflipped verion; he is the embodiment of nature.
184	* NonActionGuy: He doesn't fight. He doesn't seem to lack courage, but he doesn't even seem to consider that he could fight on his own behalf.
185	* OmniscientMoralityLicense: More directly “omniscient” than most - he literally knows the minds and hearts of all living things, and he knows what is best for the world (being as he is the world). He doesn’t ask for permission or understanding for what he does, though he does try to make it as painless as possible.
186	** BlueAndOrangeMorality: He’s pleasant enough, but his decisions and what he considers acceptable sacrifices aren’t always comprehensible to mortals.
187	* ShroudedInMyth: The only information that Saitou and Shun have to go on to find him are some vague creation myths that seem to have even been forgotten by mainstream religions.
188
189	-----
190	Mortal Form ([[spoiler:Darien]])
191
192	* [[spoiler: BarrierMaiden: Once he's woken, Darien has a "Do you understand what you've done?" moment with Saitou and Shun. The reason for earlier characters' reluctance to help them find him becomes clear: now that the god is conscious in a human body, if any harm befalls him, it will literally kill the Earth. His normal practice of leaving his power and consciousness disperse maintains the balance of the world.]]
193	* [[spoiler: DeathByOriginStory: His parents, in a car crash [[{{TheWoobie}} (on his birthday)]], leaving him ConvenientlyAnOrphan.]]
194	* [[spoiler: OccultBlueEyes: His “striking blue eyes” are described a couple times, and he does in fact have psychic powers, as well as being, of course, a god SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan.]]
195	* [[spoiler: PsychicPowers: In particular {{psychometry}} and assorted dreams, although whether [[{{DreamingOfThingsToCome}} precognitive]], [[{{DreamingOfTimesGoneBy}} retrocognitive]], or [[{{DreamSpying}} clairvoyant]] isn’t really clear. When he touches people he sees flashes of their life, which probably explains he credulity when they claim things like being 600 year old kusari-fundo.]]
196	* [[spoiler: WistfulAmnesia: Lost all memories when he was six, which he never regained, and which leaves him into adulthood with a feeling of “something missing”. ]]

208	\
209	\
210
211	-----
212
213	* ArtificialLimbs / {{Cyborg}}: His right arm is clearly mechanical, described as looking pneumatic and having tubes that flex in place of muscles, and fingers that look like metal claws. It still functions perfectly, though.
214	* MarkOfTheSupernatural: He has red eyes and greenish hair that show him to not be human.
215	* OurAngelsAreDifferent: He is an angel but doesn't seem to be attached to a god - he's "an angel of technology".
216	** WingedHumanoid: His true form has enormous feathery wings, described as each being twenty feet long.
217	** PerpetualMolt: When his wings are visible, he's constantly shedding feathers, which disappear after a few seconds.
218	* ScarsAreForever: He lost an arm at some point and claims that he waited a long, long time to be able to replace it with his artificial one. Evidently being an angel wouldn't restore it.
219	** AnArmAndALeg: He hasn't said how he lost his arm, but it's implied to have been a traumatic injury.
220	* {{Technopath}}: He shows an ability to control the electric lights, at least.

228	%%--> ''"quote goes here"''
229
230	Haru is a river kami who had lost his river and was staying with Saitou in 2014. He took the form of a teenage boy in swim trunks with very little emotion. \
231	\
232	\
233
234	-----
235	* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: He [[{{AnthropomorphicPersonification}} literally is a river]], but like any kami he takes a human form to interact with mortals.
236	** Which lends some FridgeHorror to the fact that he “lost his connection” to his river. So he was a disembodied soul? And ''the river was undead''?
237	* ElementalEyeColors: Like all other water kami that are seen, his eyes are very blue.
238	* EmotionlessBoy: His primary emotion seems to be apathy.
239	** StoicWoobie: He’s a displaced kami who has to live in fish tanks and water bottles, who is slowly fading because he lost his river, and all he expresses is “it doesn’t matter”.
240	* NatureSpirit / GeniusLoci: He is the sentient soul of a river, which he got detached from.

257	* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: As an earth kami he [[{{AnthropomorphicPersonification}} literally is a mountain]], or part of one, but like any kami he takes a human form to interact with mortals.
258	* NatureSpirit / GeniusLoci: He is the sentient soul of a mountain, or part of one.

270
271	Demerei is not only an oriental dragon, but apparently an oriental dragon god - in this case, the north wind. He seems to bring two things with him: chaos and sexytimes.\
272	\
273	\
274
275	-----
276	* CharmPerson: His speech is unusually persuasive. He tends to plant seeds in people's minds they don't even realize, but they act on.
277	* CompleteImmortality: As a god of the natural world and a "dragon kami", he doesn't age and will exist as long as the world does.
278	* EthicalSlut: Demerei has some flaws, but he's basically benevolent, and truly sex-positive.
279	* ReallyGetsAround: Other immortals tend to know Demerei primarily for his sexual... availability.
280	* PerceptionFilter: People tend not to notice him, unless he wants them to.
281	* SexGod: He's known to be so good that Bakura, an [[SuccubiAndIncubi incubus]], willingly seeks him out even though he can't feed on sex with him.
282	* TimeAbyss: If he is in fact the embodiment of the north wind, he's been around or approximately four billion years.
283	* YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry: His wrathful aspect is a terrifying, sky-obscuring, raging storm and red coils.
284	* VoluntaryShapeshifting: He can move between his human and dragon forms at will.
