Amphora, God of the Craft

Amphora (Am-For-Uh)

"Look, it's all very simple. The red is indicative of the violet's unyielding love, and contrasts the muffin, which - hey, where are you going?"

--Amphora, shortly after finishing their magnum opus


  No one quite knows where Amphora came from. They're not one of the Skopunbjarn, they just popped up one day and started painting portraits, and no one knew enough about what they were doing to stop them. Amphora is also the god of Trade and Madness, as both are closely associated with artistry.   Amphora is one of the most hands-on gods in the realm. They've been known to appear on the mortal realm in disguise, and barter with traders and shopkeepers to test their business sense.

History

Amani dislikes Amphora due to Amphora creating the first set of armor. In Amani's view, this has allowed more war to spread and believes that armor is a corruption of the whole idea of clothing.   Amphora is fully aware of the glaring flaws in Amani's reasoning and just thinks Amani is an idiot.

History

Cuumulo and Amphora don't get along very well. Cuumulo, being the god of the natural order, absolutely hates Amphora because he doesn't know when he/she came from. Furthermore, Amphora's philosophy of creation clashes directly with Cuumulo's naturalistic philosophy.   Curiously, Amphora seems completely unaware of Cuumulo's hatred and even refers to Cuumulo as a friend.

History

Bahati and Heppni enjoy Amphora's work, as Amphora generally makes interesting items, which Bahati and Heppni promptly try to steal.   Amphora, being the god of Economics, is a little irked at the thefts. So Amphora, being a god of Trickery, views the thefts in good fun and makes a game out of getting even with Bahati and Heppni.
