Description

Did a little redesign of my first batch of gods since I made some lore decisions that made the old designs unfitting.

Redesign of this fellas: www.deviantart.com/daka156713/…

Explanation for changes and lore dump below:


-----

Noticable changes:

The biggest difference is the "earth" god. I have nothing agains previous design and will probably use it for someone else, but it didn't really fit with the rest and it's kinda important to be fitting with the rest. So slimmer build yet still muscular and really white skin.

The other big difference is the hair and clothes. Previously they had white clothes and colored hair, now it's the other way around. Will expand on it in the later paragraph.

Lore:

They are in fact one entity. One god thet due to some circumstances gained 4 separate forms. They always refer to themselves as 'we' (never will they use singular 'I' - with exceptions, but I'm not sure if I want to spoil anything :v). That's also the reason they call themselves the Protectors (prular). You can use annything to refer to them, they don't care.

They don't have a form themselves and look like someone who's looking at them wants/believes them to look like. This relates to why there are 4 of them. So I swiftly will go into how they came to be...

So they were "created"/"born" (not sure what to call it yet exactly, so don't hold me to that) after the universe was created with the purpose of protecting it. To help with it they created angels (these little immortal dudes: www.deviantart.com/daka156713/… ). Just 4 of them to begin with. While the 4 angels where on and about helping they were spotted by other gods and mistaken for the Protectors (that's why they are 4). Since the more angels were created but it didn't impact the look of Protectors.

And because angels have white fur all over the Protectors have white skin (and/or hair/fur/scales/feather/whatever depending on how you see them). They also created a mini space where angels can jus go about living their lives.

Them being multiple was such a prominent thing that it became impossible to see them as anything but 4 entities. Protectors see it as something quite useful actually. Since the split they can now be in 4 places at once and they still share emotions/thought like singular being.

Elemental connection was made by people living in this universe and that tooo became imseparable element of their identity. This one is more troublesome to them. They became even more separate because of it and it's harder for them to "trick" others into thinking that one of their parts is a different one (hard to put into words, so let me give you and example. Before thay could decide it this one part that you saw was the fire or water one and could basically change which part you saw at will. Now whichever part of them shows up it's just this part. It's still probably confusing, but oh well. I don't really know how to explain it better.)

Everyting they do they do to protect this universe, so when one day an angel came begging to die they couldn't kill it (they tried and failed).
