Origin

In the silent era before breath, the Primal Aether crystalized into twelve facets, each representing a pillar of reality that drifted into the Empyrean Reach.

Cosmology

A Great Wheel where the Outer Planes are twelve separate constellations revolving around the Material Plane, which serves as a testing ground for their disparate philosophies.

Structure

A high council governed by Ouroboros and Aethelgard, though each deity maintains an autonomous celestial court and often operates through shadow-proxies to avoid direct cosmic war.

Mortal Relations

Gods do not walk the earth; they are echoes in the wind or figures in the stars. Mortals offer sacrifice not to bring them down, but to catch a glimpse of their passing influence.

Afterlife

Souls travel to the Silver Horizon where Marrow judges their weight, handing the worthy to Ouroboros for placement in their respective celestial domains, while the wicked are cast into the Maw of Xul-Ra.
