Daeva

Daeva are demonic deities, otherwise known as the epitome of evil. These beings loath, destroy, and consume without regard for others. At least most of the time. Similar to elohim, daeva were once mere mortals that helped, loved, and sacrificed for others. These feelings have not been lost yet they have been suppressed. Every so often a virtue is exposed in a daeva, commonly disguised in such a way that other evil beings do not understand the truth of the matter. Below you’ll find basic explanations of the categories used for each entry of a daeva.

General

The material covered first in an entry is common facts. It is designed to summarize a deity and offer a quick peek at the lengthy information covered in the following subsections. The name, alignment, strength as a divine being, portfolio, and any aliases of the deity are listed here.
