The world of Inventa pulsates with an ever-shifting vibrant weave of divine power.

While a singular, enigmatic force known as Medea is acknowledged as the ultimate source of existence, the day-to-day lives of mortals are more directly influenced by a pantheon of lesser deities. These deities, also referred to as the wider pantheon, are the most commonly worshipped and talked about divine beings.

Unlike some pantheons where deities are organised into hierarchical structures, the Lesser Deities represent a diverse and sometimes conflicting spectrum of alignments and domains. Some, like The Architect, embody the harmonious balance of creation (Air, Earth, Fire, Water). Others, such as The Dark Huntress, revel in the untamed chaos (Chaos, Evil, Strength). This complexity reflects the inherent contradictions within the natural world – the beauty of a blooming flower alongside the destructive power of a hurricane.

This page serves as a comprehensive guide to the Lesser Deities, providing a detailed breakdown of their alignments, the domains they influence, the species they manifest as, and other key aspects of their existence. As you delve deeper, you'll discover:
