Vartiz Pantheon

The Vartiz Pantheon is the collective name for the twelve gods and goddesses also colloquially known as "The Titans". These deities represent and were responsible for the creation of the Vartiz, which later became the six Vartiz races known today. After the Vartiz split, the different deities were revered by the different races, with two goddesses and/or gods 'allocated' to each race, based on the nature of said people as well as of said deities.

The pantheon consists of the gods Zabutur and Lyacs, as well as the goddeses Victory, Aretmis, Ariel, Gini, Echo, Luna, Kiya, Erika, Nacreloo, and Scayl; and there are two deities for each elemental affinity. Gini & Kiya represent fire; Ariel & Luna represent water; Echo & Erika represent air; Victory & Artemis represent earth, Lyacs & Scayl represent light; and Nacreloo & Zabutur represent Darkness.

Nature
As deities, the Titans are immortal, timeless beings that have watched and presided over their people for eons uncounted. They, however, much like the Kasil Pantheon, were created under the watchful eye of Xaex and Leaxyk, although they operate with autonomy and independence all the same.

The Titans were not just randomly divided among the Vartiz Races by chance. Rather, there were/are two deities that corresponded with each of the Mencuan Elements, to the point that when the Vartiz eventually separated, it became clear who each race would revere above the others. One interesting aspect, however, is that most Vartiz revere or at least pay respects to the ten other gods that are not their patron deities, although this is noticeably less often than the amount of time and reverence given to their patron gods.

Patron Gods
The original Vartiz revered each deity in turn, although even before the race split into the six varieties seen today, some were revered more than others, usually based on the adherent's elemental affinity. The division into the modern day Vartiz Races simply amplified this mindset, leading to the systems of worship seen in modern times.

Shinzoka
The Shinzoka revere Gini and Kiya as patron goddesses of fire. Due to minimal outward influences, despite the neighboring Zaderei, there aren't as many external religious influences due to the isolationist nature of the Shinzoka's homeland, Krawvill. An exception is the Kagero-Kiza organization, which is exposed to many other religions, and thus a lot of them wind up modifying their faiths according to their own discoveries.

Madizi
The Madizi revere Ariel and Luna as patron goddesses of water.

Kuthawa
The Kuthawa revere Echo and Erika as patron goddesses of air.

Komera
The Komera revere Victory and Artemis as patron goddesses of earth.

Mizulen
The Mizulen revere Lyacs and Scayl as the patron god and goddess of light, respectively.

Todawa
The Todawa revere Nacreloo and Zabutur as the patron goddess and god of darkness, respectively.
