Qaran, God of the Earth

Qaran is an Apalian deity, one of the four Children of Aavar. Qaran is the deity of the earth, encompassing the very ground life is built on.

Personal History

Qaran was created at the very beginning of the Yonderverse, 640 billion years ago. He was created just after Aavar, God of Gods was, after he felt lonely in a barren void that was the Yonderverse at the beginning of time. He set out to create four new deities, known as the Children of Aavar. These four children are Asherin, God of Fire, Thunderus, God of Lightning, Arala, God of Water, and of course Qaran, God of the Earth.

Qaran was then given a seat at the God's Table, where the five deities designed the entire Yonderverse over the course of centuries. Qaran was tasked with designing the land people walk on, an incredibly crucial role in the Yonderverse. Civilisations and cultures are built on the ground of planets, all thanks to Qaran.

Qaran is supposedly responsible for a mass-extinction on Cilvarth. 16 million years ago, a crater formed in the ocean known as the Tea-Pit. According to legends, Qaran, in a drunken state, sat down on the planet too hard and caused the crater to form, and subsequent tsunamis raged across the planet.

Family & Relationships

Children

Qaran is responsible for the spreading of ichor throughout the Yonderverse, in the form of children. With five hundred biological children, Qaran has by far the largest number of offspring out of the Children of Aavar. These children are found across the Yonderverse and apparently have incredible powers that have caused drastic changes in geography on some planets, some children causing mountain ranges to form and others destroying whole planets.

Siblings

As one of the original four Children of Aavar, Qaran has three biological siblings: Thunderus, God of Lightning, Asherin, God of Fire and Arala, God of Water. Mulhaia, God of Torture is Qaran's half-brother, descendant of Aavar, God of Gods and Luphemis, God of Lust.

Characteristics

Physical

Qaran is 7'9, making her the tallest of the four Children of Aavar. Her bright orange hair contrasts her dull green skin, covered in mottled, moss-like scales. Qaran's face is round and smooth, while the skin on her arms and legs are cracked in parts, revealing shimmering silver flesh underneath.

Her astral form, accessed by only the most powerful of deities, is a hundred metres tall, as are the rest of the Children of Aavar's astral forms. Her hair becomes spikier in this form, along with armour plating forming along her back, arms and legs.

Mental

Qaran's confidence is admired by her followers. She knows exactly what she is doing, and because of this she has complete control over her powers, something the other Children of Aavar do not. After all, she spent a billion years in isolation, meditating to achieve complete mental peace and calm.

I like the confidence part, but it would seem that gods have just the tiniest tendency to get drunk and cause massive cataclysms

Just a little problem xD It makes for some interesting catastrophic events though!

I hope you have a great day!   Explore the endless planets brimming with life of the Yonderverse! Go after creatures, discover new places, and learn about the people you find along the way.   Come prep for WorldEmber with me!

I was like, 500 biological children doesn't sound like much for a god, and then I realised she was female. XD   Imagine causing an extinction event by sitting down! :O
