The Assembly (The New Gods)

Also Called the New Gods, the Assembly consists of all gods that were forged and brought forward by the desperation and will of the masses. As the convergence was raging on, most people lost faith in the Titans. They were nowhere to be seen, literally and figuratively, so instead of looking into the stars, many folks looked at each other, deriving strength in unity and other worldly domains. Even though the denizens were split up in many different havens, the assembly was forged in unison, creating the pantheon of the new gods, to be worshipped across Mindosza.

  The Assembly came together for the first time, shortly after the Havens closed. As the denizens came to realize their fate, having to spent their lives underground or trapped - often both - many turned away from the Titans that created the world but also brought forth the Convergence. Being denied the sight of the stars, even the most devout eventually lost tough to these primal deities and instead turned to the new gods.

  These Gods are no longer Titans in the Sky, unreachable and unfathomable but were often associated with worldly traits. In trying to cope with their situation, the Denizens were looking for strength in each other and found it in the assembly. Once birthed, these New Gods came to represent the struggles the people had to go to through and aided them in dealing with their worries. However, some of these Gods gave in under the pressure of having to protect their flock. Despite being Gods in name, they often had nowhere near the strength of some of the Horrors besieging their communities. 

  Eventually, some of them broke under this burden, becoming the very thing they were originally sworn to fight. These Gods are also referred to as the Mad Gods: Nisseth and Kograth.  
Lorm, the Marauder represents might and ambition, the willingness to care for your clan by all means. He can be a cruel god but never unfair. In taking from others to provide for his own, he will not leave anyone without means for survival.
Nkare, the Arcane Mistress represents Magic and indulgence, teaching her followers academica, wizardry and philosophy. She is portayed in luxurious clothing and clearly wealthy. What use is all this power, if not to make your own life easier or at least more bearable?
Ainmire, the Verdant Bulwark represents nature and toil, giving strength to cleanse and reclaim the land from the blight of horrors. Putting the restoration of Mindosza ahead of hiw own needs, he stands for an altruistic and modest life.
Korellia, the Erudite represents culture and the unity of people. As such, she embodies all facettes of society, even opposing ideas like truth and secrecy. She is often depicted two-faced, representing the various influences she wishes to balance and scale.
Xho'akkora, the timeless Serpent represents passion and perfection. His near endless serpentine body serves as metaphor for the opportunity of growth every denizen has every single day. Passion and time is all it takes to reach perfection, and so his followers will often be quite skilled in their chosen profession.
Kasuna, the Astral Walker represents the Stars and the soul, looking to cast light into the darkness. Her watchful eye seeks out infestation, looking to vanquish horrors where ever possible. One eye is always directed at the stars, looking to understand their movement and cause of the convergence.
Kograth, the Corrupter represents tyranny and destruction. This Mad God has allied with the blight that are the horrors and is looking to turn all of Mindosza into a twisted nightmare.
Nisseth, the Lucid Nightmare represents trickery and sorrow. This Mad Goddes instills fear and doubt in people's minds, looking to haunt their dreams. Without the safety of one's own dreams, most people turn insane once their have met her gaze.
