Gods

* Yveen, Goddess of Life

Appears in : ???
Measurements (as a female human being) :
1m75 == 63kg == 95D-64-94
Yveen, if not the most powerful, is the most important God of the Universe. She is granted with major skills, and owns a peculiar place among the Gods' Council. Her voice is one of the most important, too.
Yveen can grant Random and his friends services, and sometimes give a little help.
Magdalena Leganov (see below) doesn't like her much, mainly because Yveen is kind and a bit candid for that much sexiness, but Yveen doesn't care.

* Ostarlow

Appears in : Mega Flare
Ostarlow is a powerful ghost, entirely made of fire. His highly fire-concentrated body makes of him a feared enemy, able to burn even the strongest metals.

* Bagghus

Appears in : Giga Flare
"Right hand man" of the High God of Fire, Bagghus is a powerful spirit that can perform huge and wide fire storms. His 5 natural satellites of fire, constantly revolving around him, are probably the answer to his resistance to water and ice.
Bagghus is a dangerous spirit that is better avoided... unless you're the spellcaster !

* Tear Scorpions

Appears in : Mega Freeze, Giga Freeze
Tear Scorpions are supposedly created by some dark necromancer, friend of Aryon, High God of Ice. They are made of highly concentrated ice, and their venom is so cold it hurts very violently. Tear Scorpions can cut through metal and freeze their victims.

* Aryon, High God of Ice

Appears in : Ark Freeze
Measurements (as a humanoid God) :
3m40 == 3600kg
Aryon is the unmatched God of Ice. This gigantic creature is protected by a frozen armor made of a celestial metal, and can create anytime huge comets of Ice.
Very tricky, enjoying wicked schemes and painful surprises, Aryon is a discreet God that doesn't talk much and often misses the Gods' Council. A supposedly friend of him, a sorcerer, may be responsible of Tear Scorpions butchering creatures fighting against Freeze Mages.

* Gasder-Tharn, God of Thunder

Appears in : Mega Bolt, Over Bolt
Gasder-Tharn is a placid but confident God, that never fails to shock opponents with drastic electric bolts. Not much is known about Gasder-Tharn, but his importance in Mega Bolt is famous among wizards.

* Shelby Tortoyl

Appears in : Ocean's Wrath
Weight (as a summonable creature) : 4500kg
This mythical and gigantic creature is supposed to wander in infinite seas of the universe. Even Bounty Hunters cannot find it easily in the Gods' Kingdom. Very little of this monster's power is used in spells, which is explained by the fact Shelby Tortoyl is a difficult creature to control ! The tortoise does not attack, it only has to move towards the opponent to hurt.
A sheer mythical monster, symbol of the ocean's destroying powers.

* Psyrak Grebir, "Psyrak"

Appears in : Lord of the Dance
Necromancer in his living days, Psyrak quickly became one of the most important entities related to Air spells. But his natural ways of betraying friends, despising rules and rebelling against higher gods, were the cause of his banishment from the Air Community. Psyrak then continued improving, creating terrific spells, and helping anyone whose interests were in killing.
Nowadays, Psyrak appears old, hunchbacked, with a distorted face, but his dreadful powers remain the same, and even his lowest apparition "Lord of the Dance" is an awesome damaging spell, feared by all.

* Droguidon

Appears in : Rocket Ground
This powerful Dragon was tamed by Raor, a friend of the God of Earth. Gifted with an impressively resistant skin, Droguidon is always happy to jump on the ground and cause major shocks. His fat stomach and fast flight sure help a lot !

* Lucien Konikcut, God of speed, travels, mathematics and completion

Appears in : Lucien Konikcut
Though severe in appearance, Lucien Konikcut is a friendly and entertaining God, often willing to provide help to adventurers. Lucien enjoys preferencely sexy girls with fast and open-minded brains.
His works remain uncomplete, but more and more buildings raise on the Deport, devoted to his thoughts and way of life.

* The Reaper

Appears in : Death
Time has cancelled the Reaper's exact identity, but everyone still knows about this evil ghost haunting the kids' dreams and the men's reality. Tons of legends have been written with the Reaper and his frosty way of stealing souls.
Well used, this feared entity can cause major effects simply resulting in one word : death.
Centuries will pass before the Reaper ends his filthy job.

* Drachknor, also known as the Dragon Lord

Appears in : 666
Weight (as a summonable creature) : 5900kg
The Necromancer Ulga'Har, author of the 666 incantation, needed some creature to be able to contain its huge and living amount of dark energy. The Dragon Lord Drachknor was the answer to his researches.
Gifted with powers overcoming those of most dragons, Drachknor knows exactly how to deal with the 666 demoniac symbol, and can unleash a destroying breath of dark energy on the whole area. Merciless, angry and hungry, Drachknor never fails and his victims can hear before their death his loud roar.

* Ozur Karmalaïev, also known as the Dark God

Appears in : Necromogon
Measurements (as a humanoid God) :
2m35 == 780kg
Though never considered as a genuine god, Ozur was so dreaded and powerful a lot of his fidels and enemies quickly assimilated him as a god.
Ozur was responsible for many onslaughts, and the Gods' Council even had to stop him calling some Master Bounty Hunters.
Ozur wasn't killed, but the Gods' threat somehow forced him to calm down. As a creature, Ozur has no kindgom or particular status, but he created amazing spells that usually reflect his propensity to destroying, butchering or tearing.

* Magdalena Leganov, Goddess of Sex and Beauty

Appears in : Love Me, Femme Fatale
Measurements (as a female human being) :
1m79 == 65kg == 92D-64-90
Magdalena use to be a kind princess of her empire, until she died and got promoted into Goddess of Beauty, due to her status, skills, but also amazing smile and voluptuous body.
However, Magdalena became wicked as she experienced her Goddess powers, but, in contrast to Yveen, she began to try many, not to say all, lustful and unconfessed tendencies. Her unmatched skills allowed her to keep her Goddess status, but she was called, in addition to Beauty, Goddess of Sex aswell.
Nowadays, men and women of all the world can at times have a pleasant and depraved moment, not knowing that this wicked and dominatrix girl is a Goddess... in her human appearance.

* Shi'yr Zaramaär, also known as Sanguine Phoenix

Appears in : Delta Night
Very little is known about this creature, Phoenix of the Outer World.
His red body and huge jaws scare most people, and the first is responsible for his dreaded name ("sanguine" means "ruddy" in Sverige).
Zaramaär has the reputation to be merciless, and able to locate any opponent, even if the spellcaster cannot see it. Guided by an unknown and probably undead power, the Phoenix is often lethal and his powers are among the greatests.
However, nowadays, most people totally ignore this awesome and fierce creature.
It's probably best this way...

* Ulm-Warrior

Appears in : Ulm Overcraft
Height and weight (as a sword) : 1m80 and 25kg
Very little is known about this living sword, supposedly son of the Apocalypsia, the Mother Sword. The Ulm-Warrior chooses who can equip it, and owns a spell dedicated to its glory.
This spell, Ulm Overcraft, unleashes the sword's fury, resulting in incredible damages on mostly any opponent.

* Kid Sun

Appears in : Razor Sun
This entity is linked to absolutely nothing. Gifted with powers of the sun, Kid Sun can cut through any opponent and perform huge damages... though nobody seems to actually know something about this mysterious creature...
