'''Aegis, God of War''' is the Lord General and an esteemed [[Elder Gods|Elder God]]. Many associate the realm of war with the most spectacular and obvious effects of a protacted military campaign. Pictures of armies arrayed against each other are easy to conjure in any mind. Sieged walls, knights riding out in armour and even hordes of demons upon the battlefield are the easiest physical manifestations of war that one can imagine. The realm of Aegis, however, is not limited to the bloody battlefield. Aegis' realm encompasses any skill, task, philosophical or social tactic that contributes to the success of war. Hence, Aegis knows that diplomacy, secrecy, boldness and boastfulness all have a place in the realm of war when used in the appropriate moments.

# Direct harm
# Discovery of information
# Leading and organising others to promote the victory
