Aston

Aston is the god of cities and communities. Though he is also viewed as the father of humanity, he is not particular of his followers. Aston can be found wherever there is a city and a community, regardless of race. He has many shrines and temples within the southern continents of Terre de Collines and Arani as well as many port cities. Aston teaches his followers that cities and communities are a place which should nurture, protect, and provide happiness for their inhabitants, never degrade them or cause them suffering. As such, his clergy seek to improve impoverished areas and to keep both the city itself and its people in good condition. Aston also teaches his followers to be accepting of all who are part of the community and to never turn away one who wishes to be a part of it. As the patron of Humans, he encourages Humans to be open-minded and to spread throughout the world, melding into other cultures or accepting others into their own.   Aston is one of the most worshiped deities of the Aran Pantheon. Most Humans offer him at least a token amount of prayer. Those who dwell in cities, especially those in positions of higher authority are likely to take the teachings of Aston more seriously (or, at least, put up the appearance that they do). Even the downtrodden often pay homage to Aston in hopes he will improve their lot in life.

In the Central Pantheon - Arrigo

Arrigo is the primary god of the Central Pantheon and Aston's alias within it. Arrigo is a deity of hearth and home. He is also the protector god of humanity and, in some myths, its progenitor. Most practitioners of the Central Pantheon have an idol of Arrigo in their home, from elaborate golden or ivory effigies to humble hand-carved wooden idols. He is also beseeched by those who are lost to guide them back home.
  Arrigo is also the god of communities and solidarity within them. He is said to be found where neighbors and fellow citizens come together and bolster one another.
 

In the Western Pantheon - Aidan

In the Western Pantheon, Aiden serves much the same role as he does in the Imperial and Central Pantheon. He is believed to have been the ancestor which gave fire to the Beò forbears. Like the Central Pantheon's Arrigo, he is often prayed to to guide the lost home. Aidan is also a god of healing in the Western Pantheon, particularly to those who have not earned the right to leave the reincarnation cycle yet.
 

In the Southern Pantheon - Lucretius

In the Southern Pantheon, Lucretius is a deity of progress. This encompasses direct technological progress and mechanical invention as well as roads, land travel, and land trade, both of people, goods, and ideas. He is often viewed as a neutral deity, but some traditions place him in a more malevolent role of a barbarian eroding and degrading traditional culture.
 

In the Eastern Pantheon - Polyxena

Polyxena is the goddes of art, culture, and mortal experiences. She is the embodiment of all creative endeavors undertaken for the sake of beauty, satisfaction, and to evoke emotions. She is the sweet harp, the beautiful statue, the imposing edifice, and the subtle poetry. She embodies community in a different way than most of her other counterparts. Rather than focusing on the physical gathering of people and their shared history and ethnicities, she is the embodiment of the shared mortal experience across the world. She is the feelings, struggles, joys, and yearnings of all mortals and the relationship of those things with art itself. In her role as one half of the dual deity Aglaia, the deity of aesthetics and beauty, she is focused on the more cerebral and emotional aesthetics that appeal to mortals' higher mental faculties and more complex emotional responses. She favors a deep, multifaceted beauty wrought by the hands of mortals.
