Karounokuni - Creator of the realm of blades. This female samurai is rumored to have invested so much of her own pure soul into her sword "Kyryugishii," rumored to have already posessed its own soul, that an infinite realm opened up and drew her inside.
Her world can be accessed through the gate of blades...Yarukui is the only man who knows it's location.
She is the goddess of anyone who devotes themselves entirely to blades. She does not allow proficiency in ANY martial weapons aside from the blade family (large swords, short swords, and daggers) She is a virtuous god, although she does allow neutrality, she shuns the wicked and their often thoughtless ways. Her followers are rumored to have a special affinity to a certain weapon, and some of these have become legendary.

For one of each type, they would recommend (or in some cases require) to be at the absolute of each purity (-1000 and +1000). In the case of the neutral god, I guess 50 in either direction would be acceptable, since that's pretty damn neutral.  |

Orzul - God of knowledge and magic
Neutral only
Grants resistance bonuses (all realms) and an identify like ability
Keeper of knowledge and weaver of the mystic realms.... Orzul is rumored to have once been a dragon like creature who was so reclusive that his existance was but a myth. Those who had supposedly met him always came back with a seemingly impervious aura about them. His life was spent in researching the workings of the multiverse. It is said he ascended to godhood by ways of a spell long ago forgotten (and possibly banned) so that he may continue his research long past the time of he mortal life.

Commenting on Karounokuni..... samurai get increased damage from blade devotion using polearms. Karounokuni is a samurai so she should allow the exception with polearms....

Karounokuni is a goddess of blades, not polearms. Just because she is a samurai doesn't mean she is the sole goddess of samurais, nor should samurai be restricted to only one goddess.

Notice of some newer changes: Birgan now increases defense pretty decently, Vitim increases magic damage more than before.
Looking for some more ideas or god-related stuff. Possible some new gods themselves.
