Hephaestus
Artworks by CO! and Bryan Lie respectively |
HEPHAESTUS
Race: Ruler
Region: Hellenic Republic
Humans recognized Zeus as the glorious one. What they didn't know was that
all of Zeus' and the Olympians' glory came from one extraordinary mind,
Hephaestus'. A master creator, a genius tinkerer, he is known mostly only as
"the engineer". However, even with his superior knowledge of the
world, he was born with the inability to control his physical manifestation or
his "shell".
Eventually he managed to forge devices to help him
master his shell, but such disability is still deemed imperfection among the
Olympians circle. Shunned by the superficially minded majority, he secluded and
buried himself in his work while Zeus and the rest of Hellenic Rulers reap the
fruit of his labor. Athena, Hermes, and Prometheus are among the few rulers to
still have Hephaestus' respect.
Realizing the Rulers are no more the advanced
beings they once was, Hephaestus and Prometheus, gave the humans guidance to divinity. Knowledge is the most efficient weapon against fear. It is said that
the moment Prometheus taught humans the nature of the flame, they plant the
first seed of rebellion against the rulers. The action of the two rogue Rulers
angered Zeus. Only with the help of Hermes and his schemes, Hephaestus was able
to escape his confinement while Prometheus is forever punished for his deed.

Tsukuyomi
Artworks by Bryan Lie |
TSUKUYOMI
Race: Ruler
Region: Nippon
One of the Three Great Rulers of Nippon. "Silence of the Night"
is a title the humans gave him since he only appears during a stormless
sundown. Being a quiet and reserved character, little is known about him. His
mystery gave birth to legends and rumors. Ancient humans believed that the
traditional blade he is carrying was so sharp that he used it to cut up the moon,
and at every quiet night, he would slice it little by little to appease the wrath
of the ocean until one day a new moon replaces the old one. Another legend said
the moon was the eye of an enormous demon where misfortunes came from, and
Tsukuyomi is the guardian of the night to protect humans from them.
