Quivira, Goddess of Battle
Goddess Quivira
Quivira is the Goddess of Battle in the Asamaline Expanse, and one of the six Watching Gods of the Six-Seeing Eyes. She is thought to be the creator of Doxa, the God of Competition, and is worshiped by any who engage in battle. Agni is thought to reign from somewhere in the Precipitancy.
Divine Domains
Artifice, death, destruction, glory, liberation, ocean, protection, retribution, strength, and war.
Divine Symbols & Sigils
Quivira is most often represented by six hands holding a weapon, but she is also associated with onyxes, gauntlets, shields, bandaged hands, tattered black cloth, and crows.
Tenets of Faith
Quivira's Battleband has six basic tenets:
- Wisdom. When you fight, let it be for good reason. Do not make enemies needlessly, do not spill blood worthlessly.
- Courage. Do not shy away from battle. It is a necessary thing. Leave your wavering heart behind when you wade into war.
- Power. Prepare yourself always for conflict, for it is an inevitable thing. An untrained body is a burden.
- Protection. Fight to defend what is yours. Do not close your eyes and allow yourself to be stolen from.
- Retribution. If conflict is brought to you unjustly, return it in kind. Your enemies must know the consequences of their actions.
- Glory. In battle, win; win so completely that your enemy's spirit is crushed, leaving no room for retribution in their hearts.
Divine Goals & Aspirations
Quivira wages the god's war. She battles what needs to be battled and kills what needs to be killed, usually at the behest of Cirasi. She is thought to fight against her brother Aphion frequently.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Most of Quivira's physical form his hidden, either by her tangled hair or her armor, but she appears to be a slender-six armed woman constantly struck with some kind of injury. How exactly her six arms are attached to her body is entirely unclear.
Special abilities
As the Goddess of Battle, Quivira is credited with the success or failure of every single violent conflict, large or small, within the Expanse. It is said that the victor of each conflict is marked with a bandage so that Quivira knows how many battles they have won.
Social
Family Ties
Quivira is thought to be the sister of Aphion, the God of Evils, and also the creator of Doxa, God of Competition. She also has at least one overlapping domain with all other gods of the Six-seeing Eye except Cirasi.
