Making your own pantheon?

[KissOfFlesh]

I don't know how to title this lol, but I made a pantheon for a story I'm making and I ended up getting really attached to this one God, like only God I've ever really felt connected with. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm curious

One could say all gods were "made up" like that at some point, at least in part. What kind of god is it?

That is truee
She's a God of Life and Creation! Her name is The Chimera, she's a very playful god, and her heads represent emotion, logic, and Vices. In the story she's one of the major gods! Basically gods that sacrificed themselves in their first era to make the islands of Atlas

Emotion and logic? Life, creation and vices (unless this is some proper noun)? Truly, "Chimera" is a good name. Does she have some central theme or are the mismatched domains the whole point?

Her central theme is basically humanity, each of the Gods in Atlas created a specific species, and the Gods represent these species, like The Phoenix who's the Harpy God, or The Mole who's the Critterfolk God. Chimera is the God who created humans and animals, hence why she is a mix of both. She's meant to be more of a mixture than the other gods though due to her being a Chimera

Ah, I see, interesting. That's certainly an effective way of representing humanity.

Thank you!! IIRC I got the idea while listening to a song

Making one's own pantheon has a certain popularity in chaos magic.
