Eltamyt (L-tuh-mit)
An unknown time from now, Doppelt has finally ceased to be, fell at the hands of some fate unbeknownst any being except Doppelt. But this occurrence in time was so detrimental that it birthed a new god. One who would bear the eventuality of all things. It's creation was so influential upon all of existence that it exists upon all of space and time at all times. After it was created, it appeared shortly after the start of the universe, after the creation of Vicnor, Ishmaar and Malkorith. Appearing before the three in a flash of brilliant light, they looked upon the alien god and asked who it was, and in a tone of superior certainty it told them "Eltamyt".
Divine Domains
Fate, and Destiny.
Artifacts
Upon Eltamyts creation, it's being was tethered to all known existence. From this connection, Eltamyt harbored a great deal of power that it couldn't contained in itself. It had to release them into two entities of power. One of these coalesced into another being, but the other sat in the void, waiting to become something more.
After the mortal realm was formed, Eltamyt foresaw what would happen if the formless power was left in the void. Eventually it would come too close to the mortal world, and destroy them all. So she resolved that the energy would be placed into an item crafted by the most skilled of Vilandruc's followers.
A mighty smith dwarf who went by the name Arlgrim Stonook forged an odd item when given the task. He forged a metallic sphere, the size of a mans head. Accepting the tool, Eltamyt took the sphere, and placed the power within. After a moment, the power rattled, and as Eltamyt had once again foresaw, the essence transformed the sphere into a small knife, capable of severing the fabric of fate. Eltamyt dubbed the item "The Blade of Chaos", and hid it somewhere among the mortal realm, fearing that her fellow gods would tear fate in their favor.

Holy Books & Codes
The Desatorin's were gifted no holy book from Eltamyt. No matter what code it gave them, it would not properly guide them. While she did give them tenets of faith, that is all she deemed necessary for them. Instead, she instructed her people to carry empty books, and fill them with the history of the world around them. And these books would be deemed "Avarte".
Divine Symbols & Sigils
A metal sphere, or ball.
Tenets of Faith
1) Do not attempt to change to tides of fate. Those who attempt to must be put down for the safety of all of existence.
2) To gaze into the future is to grasp that which is fated. It should not be abused, as it can drive a mortal man insane.

Holidays
Desatorins only have one holiday, but it isn't one that their goddess passed to them, nor is it in direct celebration of anything Eltamyt did or had done to her. Instead, after being almost overwhelmed by the idea that all that is and would be is not within their hands, and instead planned out by the gods, the first Desatorin's spent months meditating upon it, and accepting the splendor that they had been gifted. After years of meditating, the first Desatorin's came to mortal enlightenment on the subject on what is known in current times as Tedorem(X) the 13th. The day came to be known as "Acului", which means "Acceptance of Fate".
Divine Goals & Aspirations
Eltamyts ultimate goal is to simply see to it that fate is seen out, and respected by all beings of the realm.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Eltamyt takes no form to mortal eyes. Only gods are capable of seeing it's splendor, as they are the only beings capable of seeing fate without losing their minds. When depicted in Desatorin churches, she is depicted as a woman concealed in thick blankets.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
After appearing before the first Peltas Gods and speaking it's name, Eltamyt did not interact with the other gods much after that. She had no reason to, and even though Malkorith prodded to know how to defeat Doppelt, she ignored him, always.
Shortly after appearing, Eltamyt found that she needed to release an immense amount of power, as her form couldn't contain the force that her domains brought with them. She expelled this excess power into two separate entities. One stayed floating in the void until it was eventually placed into the Blade of Chaos. The other one coalesced into another being altogether. After 10 years of growth, the power eventually formed into what many scholars consider the first angel. Eltamyt named him Nimbriel, and she set him upon assisting her in guarding the essence of fate and destiny, and ensuring that none will break that which shall be destined to happen.
When Cali'ebor appeared, Eltamyt was apart of the rest who fled into the newly formed Zelashian realm. She feared that since she was formed outside of Cali'ebor, and it's laws of existence, that is she were to be imposed by them, then fate would crumble under Cali'ebors thumb. After years of hiding in the Zelashian realm however, she eventually took a cautious chance and ventured into Cali'ebor. She found though, that whether Cali'ebor was aware of it, or did it intentionally, it's laws of existence incorporated the very ideals of fate and destiny.
When the creation of the mortal planet came about, Eltamyt did not contribute any creatures, nor a gift to any mortals. Instead, she watched pleasantly as all was made to be, content with seeing how fate unfolded before her.
