D&D: Primal; Gods

The gods of this savage world are almost forgotten, only primitive idols and secret shrines can be found from times before the rise of the Giants. Those who venture deep enough in the jungles can find a place of worship for these 8 divines. It is unknown whether these gods hear the prayers but don't listen, or that they lie dead deep beneath the surface... Only a select few of the now free people have divine powers, and it cannot be known that they are truly blessed, or they have stolen their magic from the dying bodies of the gods...



The gods:
It is unknown that in the past more divines existed, or there were more circles of divine power. It is entierly possible that the divines presented here are pretenders and fake gods, but as their stories are lost in the shadow of the past, no one can be sure...


The first circle:
Deities of the first circle are the most powerful of the current divines.

Allammu, the All Powerful:
Allammu is depicted in the shrines as a large male figure with four arms. In the ancient texts he is referred as the Liberator, but these tomes never mention who he liberated and what from. In the many different depicitions Allammu holds a number of different objects in his hands, sometimes a plant or a tree, sometimes seeds. His robe is also similarly varied, sometimes it is adorned with gemstones, and sometimes it has tree motives and animals on it.
His facial features vary as well, his face is often carved to resemble the race which worshipped him. The Dwarven Allammu is shorter and has a beard, the Elven one has long hair and pointy ears and so on, however in all versions Allammu is an older, wise man, leader of the gods.

Allammu is a Lawful Neutral God of Life and Nature, and the most powerful of the remaining Gods. He comes from the second generation of gods, and he is the father of all mortal beings (not the Giants, who come from the first generation Titans).
His many holy symbols always represent plants or animals. Birth and growing up are both important aspects of his sphere of inlfuence. He is the protector of life and he despises undeath, or any unnatural ways of enlongating one's life. His priests may never use healing magic to revive deceased creatures, or they fall out of his grace.
Allammu grants the domains Life and Nature. 



Tiskhu-Ri, Queen of Dissonance:
Tiskhu-Ri is the sister-wife of Allammu and the second most powerful remaining deity. She uniquely influences three Domains, meaning she is the most diverse divine, and second in power only to Allammu. She is depicted as a beautiful woman wearing full armor and weapons.

Igli-Ri, the Eternal Bliss:
Igli-Ri is one of the most positive of the remaining gods, as she is nothing but a joyful trickster. She is a female god, and often called the sister of Uhrmammu and Zamma-mu-ri, but the fact is, her remaining shrines are never in close proximity of the other gods. It is possible that is the last remnant of an even older pantheon. She is depicted as a young, adolescent girl dressed in a boy's clothes, playing jokes and fun on others. She is never beautiful, her looks are often considered unconvential, just as her shrines and temples. They were not quiet places of worship rather places of street urchins and plays.
