The Aisennik Pantheon

The Aisennik Pantheon is a collection of deities which oversee the structures, beings, and natural order of the [[Weilov]]ian Plane. These gods are believed to be functionally immortal, and to have no true physical form. Many of the Aisennik Gods will have a 'mortal form', which they may use to speak directly with the weilovian populace; this form commonly represents their domain in some way.

It is unknown how these gods came into being, as they claim to have created, either directly or indirectly, all but each other. Many speculate that they came into being due to random chance-- a lucky fusion of arcana and physical elements to form the first life⁽¹⁾ (Formation Theory). Others state that they simply always were and that, before them, there was nothing (Spontaneous Divinity Theory). A smaller, third camp believes that another pantheon of gods from another plane created the Aisennik to oversee this plane, which was seen as lesser (Tiered Divinity Theory). None of these theories can be proven by any concrete source, including direct contact with the pantheon.

There are 20 currently discussed Aisennik Gods, many of which serve a domain much broader than their title may entail. As it was told, the gods were realized in the following order: First was Syn, goddex of time and order, who began the flow of the hourglass, giving the plane structure. Second was Lanyr, goddess of that which lives, alongside Timgyl, goddess of minerals; the two of them immediately set out to form the Aiseron System, as well as the gods' 'testing planet', Crynn. Fourth was Falxinc, goddex of the arcane, who entangled the Weilovian Plane with whispers of the divine. Fifth was Cyren, goddex of weather, who brought storms of gas and rain to the planets of the Aiseron System. Sixth was Hyntrala, goddess of the mind, who gave all of Lanyr's creations the ability to think and feel. Following close behind was Kral, god of combat, and Enmig, goddess of foraging and hunting, the two gave those who lived the ability to kill, gather, and eat. Ninth and tenth were the 'sex gods', Zyxil, god of fertility, and Vingol, goddex of youth, giving those who lived the drive to reproduce. Wonys, god of chaos, was eleventh to be realised, first of the second heliospect, laced the fibres of the plane with uncertainty, creating variety where things live and destruction where things refuse to do so. With chaos came blight, as controlled by Bynt, god of disease. Thirteenth was Vimenta, goddess of travel, who directed many to migrate according to Cyren's whims. Fourteenth was Myncia, god of music, who taught his songs to the many birds as they moved across the lands. After a long pause, Anine and Moncra were realised with twin purpose, both to welcome living into the realm of death. The final four, Qarinta, Raan, Sillyn, and Ysiiris, are all gods of many small things, encapsulating many small concepts, often in matching groups, ie. the seasons (summer, spring, autumn, winter); they stand to adopt any extraneous domains that no other Aisennik God or god of the Wayside Ring will take.
