Pantheon

A pantheon is the grouping of all gods pertaining to a particular territory, where they can exert influence over without significant interference.

Little is known about divine interaction and few pantheons have been revealed in-game, much less shown in full.

Characteristics
Each Pantheon has its own internal customs and unique ways to deal with internal and external affairs. It is generally recognized, though, that war between Pantheons is to be avoided, and that a Pantheon in no way should interfere in another's realm of jurisdiction without permission.

A deity's membership to one or more pantheons will directly affect its interaction with the different worlds. Where the pantheon it belongs to has authority, a deity can do as it pleases, at its own discretion and as long as it adjusts its behavior to the Pantheon's traditions and rules.

Positions
Deities, in a Pantheon, can be classified by their position. It seems that such denominations directly affect their authority inside the group. They are classified as follows: Though............................................
 * Dhe Ehm
 * Extra Greater Powers
 * Greater Powers
 * Intermediate Powers
 * Lesser Powers
 * Demipowers
 * Near Demipowers/Avatar

Lore
The Lorian Pantheon has been shown the most in-game, revealing to be a rather stable group that largely avoids conflict within and without.

Influenced by Lorithia, the Elemental Lords are supporters of free will who chose not to interfere with mortal affairs. Because of this, many of them solely made use of communicants and, more infrequently, avatars until recently. They also enjoyed from a large following and worshippers. Demipowers, on the other hand, while less popular in terms of veneration, are frequently able to directly influence Lore and manifest directly.

It is not unknown for the Pantheon to punish members who violate its code of peace with other Pantheons, as evidenced by their imprisonment of Loco in another dimension when he nearly started a god war after he pulled a prank on Baldric.

Known members of the Patheon are:
 * Lorithia, also called Spirit Lord, the Mother and Goddess of Creation (Greater Power).
 * The'Galin, also called the Devourer, Uncreator or Destroyer of Worlds, Lorithia's husband and God of Uncreation (Greater Power).
 * The Elemental Lords of eight elements: the Light Lord, the Dark Lord, the Water Lord, the Energy Lord, the Fire Lord, the Ice Lord, the Earth Lord and the Wind Lord (Lesser Powers).
 * Fertility (Demipower).
 * Sylvanus, God of Plants (Demipower).
 * Serenia, Goddess of Harvest (Demipower).
 * Loco, God of Mischief and Fortune (Demipower).
 * The Four Riders: Famine, War, Pestilence and Death (Demipowers).
 * The Draconic Gods of Balance (Limkragg), Destruction (Ser'Mathis), Creation, Chaos and Order (Demipowers).
 * Falerin Ardendor, recently conferred a membership in the Pantheon, as God of Discovery, Knowledge and Secrets (Demipower).

Caelestia
The Caelestian Pantheon is distinctive in that its history is plagued by many internal conflicts, unlike the Lorian pantheon.

Foreign deities are recognized by their power and their membership to a Pantheon that considers as valid (i.e. has diplomatic relations). Where no diplomatic relations or recognition of the being's claim exist, a being that might, from every other sign appear to be a deity, will be an usurper and not a deity to the Caelestian pantheon.
