Demi Gods

Origins & Mythology

According to myth, the gods of Eonil—Quintra, Denday, Ghor, and Eonil—could choose any mortal and grant them the status of demi god. Such individuals would stop aging between adulthood and old age, gaining effective immortality, though they could still be slain by violence or misfortune. The exact criteria for becoming a demi god, or recognizing one, remain shrouded in mystery.
