She felt she couldn't control her body anymore, and The Measure (name came to her with the first touch) took her to a rift, and she was forced to put it inside. Then it emerged and Kralla heard herself saying: 'No Anima Mundi left. Evacuate'. Then she fell unconscious.
When she woke up, she felt incredible power flowing within her. Kralla looked at The Measure, and whispered:
'What are you?'.
And the answer came: 'It is one of the Elder Artifacts, my child. You have brought a terrible fate upon yourself. Now you are a god.'
She replied: 'A god? How can this be possible? And who are you?'.
And the voice spoken again: 'The Elder Artifacts have the power of ascending one to godhood, provided that you spend long time withing their presence. And I am a mere memory of the great power of the Elder Gods, who were residing here.'
Kralla shuddered. 'For how long have I been here? And what does it mean to be a god?'.
'I can't tell. Time does not exist in this plane anymore. And it is not easy to speak about godhood. It is great power, coming with great responsibility and great abnegation. You may find yourself capable of doing things unimaginable before. You may find yourself immortal. But you may also find yourself in danger from other gods. You may find followers and grant them bits of your power for short periods of time, but they may be not grateful for anything. You may be killed by other gods for your power, but you may never reach afterlife. You may...'
Kralla fell unconscoius again.

When she woke up, she was back in Gielinor, The Measure was nowhere to be seen, but the power was still within her. Uncertain what to do, she went to hide herself from all the vengeful and mighty gods, who were going to kill her immidiately. She travelled back to the altar, and built a castle above, to protect it. And then she started to collect the knowledge, to pass time. She tried to get hold of every book ever written and she found herself capable of travelling in time, to be a witness of every historical event. She made the enchanted key, to give similar possibility to someone as enquiring as herself and through its use she found out about the World Guardian.

Present time:
Kralla, as the goddess of knowledge, is the most knowledgeable being currently in Runescape. Her castle is full of books on all possible subjects, but it's not accessible for anyone. Mortals wandering nearby suffer from headache, result from the mass of knowledge gathered in one place.
She is a tier 5 god, though she's close to ascending to tier 4 through her vast knowledge about Elder Artifacts and probably using one (not known curently).
Kralla is deeply interested in World Guardian actions, as he/she reveals much of long hidden knowledge and lets people benefit from it.
Her symbol is a compass, such as the one used for measuring, but having 3 arms, set up like a tetrahedron (hope it's more or less clear). She does not have many followers and is barely regonizable for most inhabitants of Gielinor.
Some known followers: Reldo the librarian, few wizards from the Magic Guild, Lubridge Sage and others, who value knowledge the highest.

Hi folks! How about a Island god from the Arc? Fire and water, sand and exotic crawling, slithering creatures? Should look like Giant sea serpent or salamander, maybe shape-shifting to reflect the creatures it wants to represent, or to better facilitate what it is doing at the time...affiliated with the Arhats, moai, seasingers,and the Arc in general. It should bestow powers that allow interaction between player and environment (like tele, battle shield or wall of sand, wind or water,depending on the style of combat or defense,) offensive capabilities (crablet attack, quicksand, octopus bind), maybe produce food, Marine Godsword!, maybe rideable oceanic familiars (would love that !). Its head should have some resemblance to High armor of Hanto, and the entire god should be huge.

God's name: Extremis

The sixth of the Elder gods, creator of the world. Extremis was not made to make a mark on the world but to guide it. With powers of the elder gods the all powerful Extremis was tasked with supervising the TokHaar while they form Gielinor.

So ever since the worlds creation, Extremis has used his powers to bend reality around himself and stay hidden while pushing the entire world to greatness. Ever felt yourself pushed towards a better outcome, Extremis was likely there taking care of you like a guardian angel. The guardian angel of Gielinor and its people.

With such power Extremis has always been hidden amongst the world changing its ways for the better, waiting for the day where he himself shall reveal his existence among the gods and save the world from whichever perils come against it.

Oneira, the Dreaming Goddess:


Among the legends of the Moon Clan is the tale of
Oneira, the Dreaming Goddess
. Long ago, there was a maiden born of the Moon Clan of beauty fair and heart free. The maiden grew up on the lone Lunar Isle, longing to sail the seas, walk the far-fields, and soar the skies, but her clan hated for their magic and under threat of the Fremennik warriors, were secluded to their isle, and so it became the maiden's home and prison.

The maiden became a dreamer, imagining vast meadows, lush forests, high mountains, and swirling seas, and learning deeper in the arts of magic and sight, began to weave her power through her dreams. The maiden began to wander in the worlds of her dreams, often dreaming for days on end until she was woke by her mentors and elders, fearing she might never wake again.

It was in one of her wandering dreams that the maiden fell into a nightmare. The world about her was broken and darkened, and try as she might, she could not wake. She fled through her dreams until she came upon a light, bright and blazing, she was caught by its radiance. She beheld a great stone, burning with power, and laying her hand upon the stone, she drove the darkness of her fears away, and yet, in doing so, she fell into slumber eternal, imprisoned within her dreams.

She wept until she could weep no more, and in the silence she heard weeping not of her own, and following the sound, she beheld those whom she loved, torn by her ever-dreaming state. So she came to them in their dreams, as was her wont, and brought to them comfort and joy, and she imparted among them her knowledge of dreams and magic, and she would give them dreams and omens of the past, present, and future, and they began to call her goddess, and named the Oneiromancer to seek her ways, and it was thus that the legend of
Oneira, the Dreaming Goddess
was born.

Oneira, the Dreaming Goddess Continued:


I hope you all enjoyed the tale, I tried to keep it short and sweet, but still lore-friendly and story-like. The idea for Oneira was based on the Moon Clan's connections with dreams and magic. I thought it would be interesting to follow the story of a member of the Moon Clan who had pushed her magic so far as to essentially become one with her dreams, and so the idea of Oneira came to me.

Now, in her legend, Oneira is in her dream/nightmare when she touches the Stone of Jas, its power having manifested in her dreams, but that doesn't have to be the exact case, after all, that is just a legend, although, I do think it is appropriate considering her elevated use of magic in her dream world.

As a goddess, Oneira is not particularly powerful in terms of strength, and is almost entirely confined to the world of dreams. I would place her as either a T6 or a T5 goddess. Oneira's realm of influence is, of course, dreams, and her purpose is to walk among the dreams and nightmares of mortals, sending them dreams of those they love, ones they've lost, visions of the past, present, and conceivable future, and even nightmares of omens to warn them against powers at work against them.

Oneira is primarily a benevolent and neutral goddess who works behind the scenes to influence and inspire mortals, but not to interfere. Oneira is knowledgeable of both magic and divination (that is, to say, divine energy and the anima mundi). Oneira is worshiped by the Moon Clan, with the Oneiromancer as her intermediary.

Well, I hope you guys like the idea of Oneira, and consider her for the Create a Deity competition, and thank you for giving me the opportunity to place this entry! Good luck to everyone ^_^

The Council
Goddesses of Cycle

Long, Long ago, in a realm known only as Yu'biusk, lived a goddess known only as Council. There she lived many years watching the little creatures that roamed, seeing how they grew and prospered. One day she got curious and decided to walk down to these creatures. Goblins they called them selves they were quite docile, and only met the goddess with admiration for her beauty. She had much fun with the small creatures but soon tired and wished to go home. The goblins sad to see her go asked if they would ever see her again. She smiled and gave them a bell ”If you ever need me friends, ring this bell and I will come to grant you a wish in honnor of this fun day”. So she left and soon the goblins were once again alone to their own contraptions.
One day a goblin rung the bell and the goddess returned.
”Shiny one, We is have a problem. Our plants, they not grow. Can you help fix?”
So Council stretched out he arm and tapped a Shroom.
”There little one. Now wait till the water has all been drained by your plants, by then the plants fruits will be ripe and a feast shall begin.”
So the goblins waited and in return for their wait they were rewarded witha great feast of fruit however now the lakes and streams were almost dry. Running out of water they called for the goddess again.
”Shiny one, We is have a problem. Our rivers gone, water dry, please help us.”
So she raised her hand and thus is began to rain.
It rained for months to the point the rivers were full but the ground had loosened and much of the once rich marses were flooded. This once again bothered the goblins so they rang the bell one more time.
”Shiny one, We is have a problem. Our rivers and lakes full, but now we have to much water. We dont know what to do.” Scarred by Bandos, Forever ready for war.

”Little goblins, let me fix this once again. Using all of my power I shall make it so these times change and upon doing so shall be removed forever. But if you ever need my powers again, eat the seeds and you shall become me.”
So Council summoned her strength and changed the very world but by doing so she turned to ash and in the ash the goblins found three seeds. While the goblins didnt know to the full exstint of what she had done they would soon find out. Time passed and soon it was discovered what she had done, was create the seasons of Yu'biusk. First came the Dry season where the plants would drain the water from the soil and grow big and strong, then the Harvest season where the fruit of the plants became large and the Yu'biusk inhabitants enjoyed many feast, and last the Mud season where the rains would begin and refill the waters of Yu'biusk.
For centuries the seeds were passed from one generation to the next, till finaly in the current say 3 hungry hobgoblin geomancers saw in their bag 3 glowing seeds and decided to split the seeds between the three hobgoblins and eat them. Upon eatting the seeds however their soul and mind vanished replaced with a different peice of Councils original mind. Council has returned, but now what shall she do?
