Gods That Dabble and Plot

The Midgard pantheon has needs and the urge to meddle. The gods dispense spells and miracles to their faithful, but they make clear demands of their worshippers and priesthoods. The gods also argue, sire children to rule kingdoms, and foment wars and feuds. Divine murder and enslavement are possible, and this is part of the reason why the gods of Midgard wear Masks. Their hatreds and rivalries spill out from the heavens and into the mortal streets and kingdoms.
Every deity has distinct goals and desires, and they specify what they expect of their followers.
