I also want to get in on the fun bc I have a fun lil category system that will almost certainly never actually come up in game fkshdjs

life gets categorised in 7 levels, not necessarily by power but generally higher level = higher power on average

Cat 1 = non-sentient life (microbes up to plants and some creatures and stuff)
Cat 2 = sentient mortals (most creatures, humanoids, etc)
Cat 3 = condensed magic (conjured creatures that only existed while summoned)

Cat 4 = most powerful sentient magical creatures, servants of deities (dragons, sphinxes, etc)
Cat 5 = very high power, approaching godhood/demigodhood (warlock patrons, beings like the Ink-Treader, remnants of divided deities)
Cat 6 = deity-level, powerful enough to be influenced by the belief-influence symbiosis effect (the gods)

Cat 7 = deity power, ignores the belief-influence symbiosis effect (Hekhatoneir is the only current Cat 7 entity)

anyway so god power ranks is:

1. Hekhatoneir
2. Tai Jun
3. Shodan (during mortal wars)
4. Abzu, Obex
5. Sabaku, Shodan (during peace)

Ragnarök’s ranking on this list is redacted >:3

the belief<->influence symbiosis is truly one of my fave details of the world

the more people believe in something and put faith in it, the more power it gains!!! the people of the world accidentally created a PLANE OF EXISTENCE by integrating networked technology into their lives so deeply

meanwhile, Hekhatoneir: ✅ read 4,000,000 years ago
