Ehgos is the first being to exist in the worlds of heroism. He is the King of the Gods and the creator of reality as we know it. Using a fundamental burst of inspiration which was caused by either loneliness of boredom (He wont say) and a primordial fluid known as Ichor, he brought many different types of living beings into existence. These living beings served as the basis for the worlds of Heroism.
Character History
The Time of Titans
First, Ehgos used his Ichor to create the Titans. The Titans were nothing more than fundamental physical materials he placed across the universe to serve as his palette. His plan was to use this palette to paint the the physical world into existence, But something strange happened. The Titans gained sentience and began to move and speak. Ehgos quickly lost co
ntrol of them as they moved across the universe creating things as they saw fit.
Immediately Ehgos tried to corral the Titans, but they were mighty and proud. Instead they offered to help Ehgos complete his task. The Titans were ambitious and hard working craftsmen. Ehgos decided to combine forces with them and together they set about creating the physical world. By the time the work was done Ehgos had grown to be great friends with many of the Titans and so he no longer felt alone in the universe.
Birth of the Elementals
Some time after the creation of the physical world, the Titans began to have their own feelings of inspiration. And so the Titans decided they would attempt to create life because they desired to have descendants in the same way that they were descendants to Ehgos. Thus the Elementals were born. At first the Elementals were very basic figures. Constructs of physical matter which could not move and had no sentience. Stone Golems with basic joints. Ice spiders with sharp pointed legs. Birds made of flame which could not fly. But, with each new design the Elementals became more and more complex until finally they were masterful constructions on par with what Ehgos could create with his Ichor. So the titans begged Ehgos to give them life. Not wanting to disappoint the Titans Ehgos granted life to the Elementals which became pets and proteges to the Titans.

The Dragon War
The Dragons were the most complex and masterfully crafted of the Elementals. The Titans birthed the Dragons from Eggs which pupated in the warmth of their own bodies. After some time Dragons emerged from those eggs and they would take on the Element of their chosen Titan. The Dragons were powerful beings with vast intelligence and dangerous strength. They were also arrogant and eventually thought themselves greater than their Titan parents. Eventually, the Dragons came together and planned to overthrow the Titans. By placing a dragon egg in the heart of a black hole they were able to birth a black dragon, the most monstrous and dangerous dragon in existence. This massive dark beast attempted to create a black hole large enough to swallow the Titans. Ehgos engaged in war with the Dragons and was able to stop them, but many Titans perished in the incident and once again Ehgos found himself alone in the universe.
Traumatized and grieving over the loss of his Titan friends Ehgos went into a deep depression which lasted eons. But, nothing last forever and eventually his grief ended and he once again chose to create. Only this time he would not create randomly. He would create using order with systems in place to protect his creations. Thus, he created the zodiac. A system of life and death and rebirth. No longer would his creations be limitless, immortal, or unbound. Everything would have a soul and a lifespan tethering it to his divine essence. Thus he crafted souls of all shapes forms and colors. From his body emerged a beautiful cornucopia of spirits which merged together into a cyclone of spiritual power. An engine for life in his universe.
The Ecosystem of Flora and Fauna
Then to honor his Fallen Titan friends Ehgos created the Flora and Fauna of the universe. Designing these beings on the various forms of the Elementals, which his friends had constructed, he bound all of them with a soul from the zodiac until finally there was life and order in the universe. Light shone across all the planets which vibrated with movement and activity. Plants grew and animals hunted in a beautiful ecosystem of life and death and rebirth. Ehgos was very proud.
Creating The Pantheon
Time passed as Ehgos continued to maintain the ecosystem he had created. Life in the universe evolved over millenniums, but Ehgos always met it with kindness and adaptability. The one day Ehgos discovered something strange. There were planets he did not recall creating. He discovered that these planets were created by a god separate from himself. Ehya the Goddess of Emotion and Creation appeared in the universe much like he had. Enamored with her, Ehgos married her and she became Queen of the gods. Together they made love across the cosmos and Ehya bore three sons and three daughters for Ehgos . Then emerging from the distant cosmos came Wey the goddess of love and joy whom Ehgos married and added to his pantheon. She bore him two daughters. Then came Sehmna the Goddess of the Harvest whom he also married. She bore him two more sons. Altogether they were a family of 14 and so Ehgos moved them to The Great Mount on earth where they made their home and lived happily together.
Mankind Appears
Ehgos loved his family with every fiber of his being and could not have been happier to have created them. He spent his days loving his wives and teaching his children and thought that maybe he could live this way content for eternity. Until one day he noticed something strange. Their home on the great mount which overlooked the planet earth seemed to be host to some new form of life. Evolved somehow from this ecosystem Ehgos had created, mankind emerged from the muck of the earth. Intelligent and adaptable. Ehgos and much of his pantheon were instantly enamored by them. Impressed by their miraculous appearance the gods kept close watch over mankind watching them grow day by day.
Eventually came a day when Ehya desired another child and so Ehgos impregnated her and she birthed a son named Minos. Ehgos noticed the boys power and deemed him the god of Justice. As a result, Minos became a powerful patron of humanity. He descended from the mount and spent much of his time learning about humanity and the world. He expended his energy protecting men from suffering until one day Minos asked Ehgos why he allowed mankind to suffer at all. Ehgos explained he did not have the power to end suffering without destroying mankind's autonomy. Minos, having experienced their suffering for so long became mad and demanded Ehgos remove suffering from the world. Ehgos refused and there was a terrible conflict. Minos ejected himself from the great mount forsaking his pantheon. Pectos the witch queen and Scelos the blood titan, two more wives of Ehgos, abandoned the mount following Minos. They became his consorts on earth and together they assembled the devil gods. Aceros the God of sloth. Secarios the Royal Assassin. Magnos the Last Devourer. And Barbaros the Eternal Conqueror. Together they worked to enslave humanity and end suffering but the Pantheon was ready to defeat them. Ehgos captured the devil gods and locked them away in a dark dimension where they could not escape.
Law, Order, and The Judges
fearful of another cataclysm on earth Ehgos returned to his Ichor and crafted a new race of beings known as judges. Feeling slightly guilty about his conflict with Minos. Ehgos sent these judges to earth to be humanities protectors creating peace and order across the land. These beings, which he created in the image of his favored son Minos, were strong and beautiful. They had beautiful feathered wings with bright powerful halos and flaming swords which they could summon at will. So great was their power that Ehgos feared that they may revolt much like Minos did. So he bore chains upon them. Divine marking branded to their skin which sapped them of their free will. The Judges act only as emissaries of the gods. Doing Divine business on earth. They are forbidden from causing harm or committing crimes. And so the judges serve. Some of them willingly. Some of them not. And for a long while there was peace. The Judges watched the universe. Humanity grew and evolved. The gods loved each other atop the great mount. And all appeared as it should be. But Ehgos sat uneasy among his wives and children. Heartbroken at the loss of his favored son. He braced himself for an uncertain future and a new age which seemed to be dawning upon him.
Personality
Unlike many creation gods found in literature, Ehgos is a creator defined by high intelligence, emotional depth, and persistent moral burden rather than detachment or omniscient control.
He is fundamentally compassion-driven but structurally constrained. He cares deeply about all forms of life he creates and experiences strong emotional responses to their suffering, including guilt, grief, and attachment. This makes him unusually “human-like” for a supreme creator figure.
