Agatheis, the Elemental Lord is the God of Elements - Water, Earth, Fire, and Air. He considers the elements to be the building blocks of Creation, meant to be neither sacred nor worshiped; instead they are tools to be manipulated - used to create, destroy, and bring about change. He is of the opinion, further, that prior to Chaos' entrance into Creation, Creation was a perfect expression of the elements - a world of perfect Order where everything was in its place and the decay of Chaos was unknown.

History

Agatheis was one of the Elder Gods created by Ayar at the dawn of Creation. As part of the Triumvirate, He attempted to overthrow the reign of Proteus in the War of Humanity. Failing in this, He was sentenced to be bound into the form of a unicorn; He was freed and forgiven centuries later in the Modern Age.

Agatheis was the first Immortal to master full control of the elements. Agatheis is also known as the one responsible for the creation of Yggdrasil's Flame.

Followers of Agatheis

Agatheis' Order is one of engineers, scientists, skilled warriors, and scholars - all dedicated to both their professions and their beliefs. The Order is made up of one Elemental House for each element - Water, Earth, Fire, and Air. Members of the Order are both resourceful and effective, utilising both skill and knowledge to uncompromisingly dedicate their lives to their Lord and His realm.

While the Temple of Agatheis itself is located on the Isle of Delos, the mountain village of Genji is also held sacred by the Elemental Lord and His followers. Led by the now-deceased Gehan, the Atavians of Genji left their homeland of Arcadia, having rejected their people's traditional teachings of Vastar in favour of the Elemental Lord.
