Uzhyr

Uzhyr, the Primordial God of Order and Law, stands as one of the two original deities who forged the universe alongside Morsvitae. As the embodiment of cosmic order, structure, and immutable law, Uzhyr's influence extends across all of creation, though it manifests most prominently in his vast Omnium Theocracy, a million-galaxy-sized plateau that serves as a bastion of perfect order in an otherwise chaotic cosmos.

Origins and Universal Creation

Before the universe took shape, Uzhyr existed in pristine harmony with Morsvitae, their complementary natures allowing them to forge reality itself from the primordial void. While Morsvitae introduced the principles of change and transformation, Uzhyr established the fundamental constants and laws that would give the cosmos its underlying structure. This duality of order and entropy allowed for the creation of a balanced universe where both permanence and change could coexist.

Their first great collaborative work was the creation of the Lort'zyn, a species designed to spread civilization across the stars. For three billion years, Uzhyr guided these beings alongside Morsvitae, teaching them the importance of structure, hierarchy, and cosmic law while his counterpart instructed them in the ways of adaptation and renewal.

The Battle with the Ravager

When The Ravager invaded their universe from beyond known space, Uzhyr demonstrated his tremendous martial prowess by engaging the entity in direct combat. After thousands of years of conflict, he emerged victorious by tearing the Ravager's soul from its body and forging it into his mighty warhammer, The Entomber of Gods. This victory, while essential for the preservation of reality, came at a terrible cost as the Ravager's death cry corrupted the Nonet and drove the Lort'zyn into a devastating civil war.

Establishment of the Theocracy

Following the gradual dissolution of the Lort'zyn civilization, Uzhyr undertook his greatest work yet - the creation of the Omnium Theocracy. This massive artificial plateau, requiring six billion years to complete, represented his vision of perfect order made manifest. Under his rule as the Pantocrator, the Theocracy became a sanctuary for countless species who agreed to live under his laws through The Covenant of Sanctuary.

To maintain order within his realm, Uzhyr established various institutions and forces, including the Lawwatch and the mighty Theocratic Navy. He also created eleven immense beings known as the Deipurae from filaments of his own essence, each embodying different aspects of his power and authority.

Divine Characteristics

Unlike Morsvitae's ever-changing form, Uzhyr manifests as pure, brilliant radiance that causes reality itself to bend in acknowledgment of his presence. His very existence enforces order on the cosmos around him, and even the smallest fraction of his attention can permanently alter the fundamental nature of whatever falls under his gaze. This power is so overwhelming that few beings can endure his direct presence without being physically forced to prostrate themselves before him.

The War for Eternity

The outbreak of The War for Eternity marked a tragic turning point in Uzhyr's relationship with Morsvitae. When she led the corrupted Dark Pantheon to the Ravager's corpse, empowering them for war against the Theocracy, Uzhyr saw this as the ultimate betrayal. Though bound by their ancient pact from directly confronting each other, their forces have engaged in devastating conflict across the Theocracy.

During the war, Uzhyr has been forced to remain within Zyon to maintain the protective bulwarks that shield his seat of power and the surrounding core districts from aberration incursions. This self-imposed confinement, while necessary for the Theocracy's survival, has left him reliant on his children and followers to wage war in his name.

The Burden of Order

Uzhyr's determination to maintain absolute order has come at great personal cost. His once-loving relationship with Morsvitae has degraded into bitter opposition, though the ancient pact binding them prevents direct conflict. He bears the weight of knowing that his actions, while intended to preserve and protect, have contributed to the current state of cosmic war.
