Elysian Gods

The gods of Elyos are a group of gods born to the Heavenly Father God Orgis and the Holy Mother God Mina.
In the beginning, other gods belonged to this group, but they fell out with each other, and now only the sons of Mina belong to this group.
The gods are united under the leadership of Odis, the god-king, as the god of law and order, but Odis' power is not absolute, and he is almost a facilitator.
Most of the gods of Elyos do not work, and many of them play with their families.
There are five races as dependents: angels, elves, dwarves, humans, and pugmayoi.
The gods of Elyos rarely have direct contact with humans, but rather they send angels to contact them indirectly. The reason for this is that the gods are few in number and there is not much room for them, and many of them do not like to be bothered.
However, angels are also few in number, so they give power to people with strong faith to work on their behalf.
The gods of Elyos are the largest force among the gods of this world, but they are not powerful enough to hold down the other gods.


◎ The Twelve Elyos Gods

The major gods among the gods of Elyos.

Odis, the god of law and order. Feria, the goddess of marriage and birth.
Heibos, the god of blacksmithing and treasure. Ishtia, the goddess of beauty and love.
Triden, god of the sea and fertility. Gena, goddess of earth and fertility.
Nectar, the god of drinking and cooking. Phanakea, goddess of medicine and herbs.
Tors, the god of power and battle. Raina, the goddess of wisdom and victory.
Alfos, god of song and art. Totona, goddess of knowledge and books.

Dependent Gods are also major gods that assist the Twelve Gods.

The twelve gods and their subordinate gods are introduced separately.


Angels

A race that is second in strength to the god race and rivals the giant race, the dragon race and the demon race.
However, the Angel Chief (Seraphlord) is as powerful as the gods.
They work for Mina's children, as this is the race that Orgis created for Mina's children.
They rarely interfere directly with the earth and cannot afford to do so, as they believe that the earth should basically be controlled by humans.
This race is trying to interfere with humans and rule the earth indirectly by interfering with humans.
The humans who have received that divine revelation take the place of the divine will.
Sometimes they grant favors to humans who believe in the god they serve.
The benefits vary depending on the character of that god.
Angels sometimes use human beings as their errand boys. In most cases, the angels are the apostles of the god ________________.
The human who became a messenger is called an apostle and becomes a person who represents the will of angels.
Some apostles also have wings like angels.



About Faith

Faith is free and one can believe in more than one god.
However, in order to obtain the benefits of a god or angel, you must basically follow the doctrine of each god.
Of course, in order to be a priest or other member of the respective Order, the doctrine must be strictly adhered to.
In this world, the authority is the Order > the King.
In some countries, the king is also a priest. Rather, it is more common there.
The largest is the Order of Odis and Feriah. However, they don't deny the other gods of Elyos, and they are revered as subordinate gods.

Well, if there was an actual god, they would all be devout believers.
This is why there is less corruption, etc. in the clergy. Instead, God is corrupt.




◎ Man.

At the end of Chapter 2, I've already written about it, but I'll add to it.
Man was created by the gods of Elyos.
Naturally, they believe in the gods of Elios.
Some of them betray them and believe in other gods. Of course, such people are targeted by witch hunters.
Humans were created because the goddess Feriah did not want the goblins, orcs, and other members of Nargol's household to be the main race on earth.
Humans have been entrusted by the gods of Elyos to rule the earth.
In the doctrines of both Odis and Feria, they are taught to live and multiply, and to expand the world of humans.
For many humans, the extermination of goblins, orcs, and other demons is sometimes a great justice. This is especially true for the congregation of Tolls and Raina.
Even the gentle saintly lady has no mercy for goblins.


In fact, I was thinking of calling the human race by another name, like Arianrhod's Hyrulein.
A candidate is Yarf. It comes from Gulliver's Travels.
Elf, Dwarf, and Yarf, which are all good words, don't you think?

About race, see ancient Greek sculpture. Compared to Japanese, they are not so tall and have a short haircut.
However, hair and skin color varies from region to region.


elf.
As I wrote in Chapter 2. Its supplement.
Like humans, the race was created by the gods of Elyos.
The elves are only female because they were created by the goddesses with Feria at the center.
They had a long life span and strong magical power, but their fertility was weak, so they weren't the race that Feria had hoped for.
However, they are useful as assistants to the angels who are few in number, so they are sometimes treated higher than humans.
She likes men who are highly attractive. For this reason, he hates dwarves.
She especially scoffs at human women, saying that they wither away quickly.
However, she is devoted to the men she loves, even if they are the same humans.
He even kidnaps beautiful human boys in their sleep.
If my child turns into a log before I know it, it is the work of an elf. It is called a changeling.
Elves have different clans, and each clan has different abilities.


Dryads.
Wood Elves. He is good at mental and plant-based magic.
He can use wind magic, though not as good as Napier, and earth magic, though not as good as the dwarves.
He is the most numerous of the elves.
She will take any man she likes into her tree house.
He is not as good as Oreiad, but he can use a bow, and he is not as good at music as Nereid.
He believes in the goddess of beauty, Istia, and the god of music, Alfos.

Naiad.
Water Elves. They specialize in water-based magic and healing spells.
Many of them live in lakes, and are called the Lady of the Lake.
She has the ability to make magical swords from crystals and sometimes presents them to her favorite human knights.
She is also known as the Mother of Knights, for the best knights are born from Naiad's mother.

They often live in the inland sea of Caird with Triton and Mermaid.
Many of them are beautiful and are targeted by other races.
They believe in Istia, the goddess of beauty, and Alfoss, the god of music, and Triden, the god of the sea.

Oreiad.
Mountain Elves. Or they are called bow elves. As their name suggests, they are good with the bow.
He can use wind magic, but he is not as good at it as Napier.
Instead, he is the most skilled with a weapon among elves. He is also known as a warrior elf.
Some of them leave the forest to test their skills and join humans.
Believes in Ischthia, goddess of beauty; Alfos, god of music; Raina, goddess of victory; and Amazona, goddess of war.

Napier.
Valley Elves. Or, they are called Wind Elves. They are good at wind magic.
They are also good at mental magic, though not as good as dryads.
They only look like human girls between 10 and 12 years old.
They are born with the ability to use levitation and disguise magic.
They love to dance, and they dance in a circle in the meadow.
However, it is best to stay away from them. However, it is better to stay away from them, because a beautiful man would be kidnapped without a trace. And when they are done, their memories are erased and they are returned to their original place.
And the man will be surprised at how many years have passed since then.
Chinami also has the ability to grow mushrooms. White mushrooms often grow in a circle after Napier dances.
Believes in Ischthia, goddess of love and beauty, and Alfos, god of song and music.


Alseid.
Upper (High) Elves. They can use all types of magic except dark magic and death magic.
Also known as queen elves, elves have very high magical powers compared to other elves.
They can turn human males into elfin knights.
They are the least numerous of all elves. Most live in the Sea of Trees at the foot of Mount Elyos.
Some serve the gods directly in the Heavenly Palace of Elyos.
Believes in the god-king Odys and the goddess Feria.

Fairy Knights (Elfin Knight)
A superior human male was given the power and longevity of an elf by the superior (high) elf Alseid.
He is the only male elf in the world, though his former life is different.
He rides a keluke ion and protects the elves.

Rumpus.
Dark (Dark) Elves. Can use all strains of magic except light-based magic.
A brown-skinned elf with magical powers comparable to those of the upper (high) elves.
He is a traitor to the elves.
Because of this, he has a history of conflict with other elves.
He is also a servant of the Dark Queen, Morna.


The elves are based on Norse mythology, but in this world, they are more like the nymphs of Greek mythology.
Of course, there is also an elf element.
To begin with, Wikipedia says that elves are the equivalent of nymphs in Greek mythology, so I think it's a good idea.

About the dryads, in games they're often wooden monsters.
Why is that?
What will happen to Eurydice, the dryad wife of Orpheus?



Dwarves
As I wrote in Chapter 2. That supplement.
Unlike the others, this race was created only by the god Heybos. They are only male.
This may be why they are not always on the side of humans.
However, they do keep faith. For this reason, they sometimes fight with their fellow dwarves.
Dwarves come of age when they are three years old, and take on the form of an old man when they are seven years old.
If you put a human and a dwarf of the same age side by side, they look like a grandson and his grandfather.
However, they are a longer-lived race than humans.
In addition to granting magic, they can use earth-based magic and alchemy-based magic.
They are less attractive, but when it comes to blacksmithing skills, they are one of the best in the world, along with the Cyclops.
Some have the ability to magically refine metal without using a reflective furnace.
They can also cut wood and stone to size without the use of an inkwell.
They must have 3DCAD in their heads.
However, it is only an ability and not a technology. Therefore, I can't teach it to anyone else.
In a sense, it can be said that the presence of dwarves prevents humans from improving their technical skills.
By the way, in this world, humans do not own mines, and the only way to get ore is to trade with dwarves.
It is said that a thousand human miners are inferior to one dwarf. Thanks to this, there are no miserable mining slaves.
Nearly all the dwarves believe in the god Heybos.
Very rarely, a navel-gazer is born.
Many live in the mountains and are miners and lumberjacks.
Some dwarves, however, live in the land of the humans.
To the dwarves, gold, silver and copper coins have no value. They wonder at human merchants who collect mere grains of metal.
A very stoic race. I'd like to think that they probably don't ask for anything s*xual in exchange for a necklace. ......

The image of a Norse dwarf.
I wanted to divide them into clans like the elves, but I couldn't come up with a good idea, so I left it at that.
Since the elves are only female, it's balanced and male only.
To begin with, I'm not sure if there are female dwarves in the original text as well.
Folklore also says that the new dwarves are made from stone, but that doesn't make it right to ask for s*xual things in exchange for a necklace.
This is why they are thought to be making children with women of other races.
By the way, the lumberjack dwarves are sometimes the image of Snow White's dwarves.




◎Pugmayoi.
The dwarf race.
A race of people who are both male and female.
They were born by accident when the gods of Elyos created humans.
Their fighting ability is low, but they can talk to birds and insects.
They can use their abilities to ride birds, and many of them run mail shops.
Their abilities vary depending on the bird they are riding.

　This bird is ridden by a common pugmayoi. They have no special abilities.
　Great eagle - Fights, but is difficult to handle.
　Great owl : It can fight, but it cannot move in the daytime.
　Caladrius - Cannot fight, but has the ability to heal.

The Pugmyoi are often thought to be on bad terms with birds because they seem to fight with them when they talk to them.
Famous examples include a Pugmayoi boy who travelled mysteriously with a migratory bird led by Acker, and Aunt Golden Spoon, who is unconcerned with appearances.

Only one person has sent me his thoughts on the original story of the famous ones of Pugmayoi.
Perhaps only a few of our readers are familiar with this work of art Σ(￣ロlll).

If we turn a human into a yarf, we may have to rename Pugmayoi to Lilliput.
