KE’TAL


Ke’tal is a forgotten god, once worshipped by civilization who have long been wiped out in a seizing of their land many years ago. Since no one is left to worship him, his time is dwindling. But being a bit of a stubborn one, he refuses to be snuffed out. He now searches for someone with strong enough spiritual ties, realized or not, to be his avatar. One who will keep him alive in turn for offering them his underlying power.

Ke’tal is a god of mischief, play, and risk/reward. He loves playing tricks on people and having fun, sometimes at inappropriate times. He frequently acts on spontaneity instead of planning, offering back to him being a god of risk and reward. He also loves to be praised and spoiled, as he misses the times when he would receive such things daily. He can be over-confident and a bit arrogant, but that’s all just a cover-up for his true feelings of disappointment in himself. He’s not the best, and he knows that, but he’d rather deliver himself affirmations than go back to wallowing in self-pity. He’s tried it. It’s not pleasant.

Extra:

He’s a God of Mesoamerican descent whose following was great. His followers would often make sacrifices for him. The souls of these dedicated believers who were sacrificed or sacrificed themselves in his name have been kept inside him for all of these years, keeping him from fading from existence entirely. It's why when he laughs or exerts energy, his voice sounds like many at once.

Although he is a god, he is a weakened one. He still has his abilities, but the more he uses them the more he fades. The only way to replenish his powers is by absorbing more souls. That is if he’s on his own anyway. The reason why he seeks an avatar is so that he doesn't have to be held back like that anymore. Once he links with a mortal chosen as his avatar, he and the mortal will share energies and lives. When the mortal sleeps or heals, it replenishes him as well. Whatever happens to his avatar, happens inadvertently to him.

He blames himself for the slaughtering of the people who worshipped him. He should have been there to defend them and repay all the years they dedicated to him, but gods weren't supposed to interfere with the earthly dealings of humans, even if it marked the end of the pantheon as well. The pantheon accepted the end of the civilization that called on them. And despite Ke’tal’s instance of fighting back against the colonists in some way, the higher gods did not permit interference.

“Come on, I’m only kidding! Now stop it with that serious face! You’ll look 80 at 25 if you don't stop frowning so much.”
