Odesus is the Leydonian God of Time and Destiny. He is the son of Nyva and Arlios, and the elder brother of Ilvara, Vielia, Agnia, Nenthys, and Caris. He is the Lord of All That Begins and Ends and the Bringer of the Rending, colloquially known as just the Bringer.
He saved the world along with his Chosen, Taras Sidorov, by bringing about the Rending of the Realms. His Chosen used Odesus's sword, the Sword of the End, to defeat the Shrouded King and seperate the spirit realm from that of the mortal realm for good.
Unlike his younger siblings, he was not born of Nyva's womb. Instead, after Arlios ascended to godhood he plucked the brightest star from Nyva's sky and allowed her to breathe life into it. Ebians often claim it was an insult to Cyrela, mocking how she created mortals. As Odesus was born in this way, he had not ichor flowing through his veins but instead the very matter of the universe.
Some scholars speculate that this was the reason he was granted two powerful realms; as he was created from the very fabric of the universe, older than even Nyva and Cyrela themselves, only he could withstand such domains. Others believe Odesus was no more powerful than any of the other deities from either pantheon and was simply filling a role that was needed at the time.
