MAIN COSMIC PROTAGONISTS
​​​
THE OBSID (DIVINE CHILDREN)
Wynn
Title: The Timeless Magical One
Role: Eldest Obsid, De Facto Leader
Portfolio: Magic, science, knowledge, structure
Traits: Curious, responsible, anxious, brilliant
Description:
Wynn is the intellectual heir to Aidian and Lysinae. Drawn instinctively to the Magical Matrix, she becomes the steward of structured magic and scientific understanding. Her leadership is reluctant but earnest. The burden of responsibility weighs heavily on her, especially during the Ascension War.
Symbolism: Knowledge, leadership, unintended consequences
Divina
Title: The True and Peaceful One
Role: Goddess of Faith and Reverence
Portfolio: Faith, divine connection
Traits: Serene, devout, introspective, quietly conflicted
Description:
Winged and radiant, Divina represents belief in the divine order. She inspires worship and reverence among mortals. However, her internal doubts and growing paranoia during the Ascension Age hint at future fractures within the pantheon.
Symbolism: Faith, purity, spiritual authority
Canius
Title: The Spiritual One
Role: Guardian of Souls
Portfolio: Death, afterlife, transition
Traits: Detached, curious, solemn
Description:
Canius is fascinated by death and the soul’s journey. His experiments lead to the creation of the Nether Realm — and unintentionally, the undead. His actions blur the line between compassion and recklessness.

Mystal
Title: The Fortunate Lively One
Role: Goddess of Revelry and Secrecy
Portfolio: Fun, chaos, invention, black markets

Role: Goddess of Nature and Beauty
Portfolio: Nature, art, seasons, sensuality
