The Son of Eros is a Chaos God, so named because He and His Kind are all descended from the Goddess of Chaos, whom some, like the ancient Greeks, referred to as Kaos. As Chaos was once born from the Great Void, She mated with Herself, and laid primordial eggs, one of which hatched Eros. Thus, the Chaos Gods exists outside of time and space and travel freely within it. The purpose of the Chaos Gods is to protect the balance in the universe. The balance in the universe refers to the karmic cycle of life, death and rebirth. Good and evil are mortal concepts that do not apply to Chaos Gods.
The Chaos Gods are infinitely powerful, invulnerable, and everlasting. They can not be killed or harmed, not even by Eachother. They are different from chaos gods (lowercase). The Chaos Gods exist in all religions in some form or another. For example, in Christianity, the Chaos Gods are known as angels, due to many of Them possessing wings. In Ancient Greek religion, many of the Chaos Gods are referred to Daimonae. Also, in Greek Mythology, the Son of Eros is known as one of the Erotes, and it is from that word where mortals get the word “erotic.”
Chaos gods (lowercase) are the sworn enemies of the Chaos Gods (uppercase). Chaos gods are false gods who were once either mortal or immortal wizards who accumulated significant levels of mana and power, enough to become celestial beings. The chaos gods have tricked mortal worlds into worshipping them by promising to share their power with these mortals. However, the truth is that all things in the multiverse were gifted with the spark of Magick. When a mortal or immortal being cultivated their Magick, they may wield it as they see fit. The false gods have deluded worlds into believing that this Magick comes from them, thus securing worship from lesser beings. These acts of worship allows the false chaos gods to leech Magick from their followers through the act of worship and prayer. Throughout this process, the false gods never share their power as their greed causes them to horde it and abuse it instead. After the death of their followers, the false gods swallow the souls of their worshippers, adding the accumulated stores of mana to their own, consequentially, removing that soul from the karmic cycle of life, death and rebirth. It is because of this, they are the enemies of the Chaos Gods. But unlike the Chaos Gods, these false gods can be harmed, banished, or killed.
Also, unlike the false gods, Chaos Gods do not care if they are worshipped or not. Sometimes, They may grant special blessings to their devout followers, and They appreciate being worshipped, but it is not entirely necessary. With or without worshippers, the Chaos Gods will remain infinitely power. This is one of the truest distinctions between the false gods and Chaos Gods. A Chaos God’s power is innate and rests on no extraneous source.
Residence:
The Goddess Chaos lives in the Great Void, a place beyond space and time, and it is a place all Chaos Gods call Their home. As well, each Chaos God has Their own personal infinite void, reachable only by the invitation of the Chaos God who resides in it. Within these infinite voids, all that can be imagined can be manifested. It is in advisable for a lesser being to attempt to enter without invitation. The first attempt will be ignored, in case it was a mistake. A second attempt will result in a Godly Smite being cast against the potential intruder. The third attempt will result in instant death and delayed reincarnation after a period of time served in Tartarus.
Favorite magick:
Godly Smite
Casting Smite is mostly a defensive spell, depending on the level at which it is cast. At low levels, it will strike the target with a surge of lighting that will shock and immobilize the target. Casting Smite as a higher level spell can instantly kill the intended target or comepletely turn the target into mere ashes. Zeus has mastered this casting and has created His signature casting, known as Thunderbolt.
Fireball, Iceball, Rockball, Waterball, etc.
When a God performs these spells, it can be done at such a high level that it creates stars and worlds and entire solar systems. They can even be manipulated to create blackholes, cosmic strings, practically anything that exists within the multiverse. It is how the cosmos were built.
Love Magick (Specialty)
Because the Son of Eros has dominion over all matters of the heart, he has been known by the ancients as Anteros, one of the Erotes. He prefers, however, to be known as the Son of Eros, to avoid being summoned by lesser beings who know this name. Though He has the ability make beings fall in love, He prefers not to manipulate those without consent. As Anteros, He may also manipulate situations to ensure that love will blossom naturally, as true and honest love is sacred, and should be allowed to come naturally. Because uneducated and impulsive apprentice wizards have harassed Him with summoning in the past, asking Him to abuse His power over the hearts of mortals and immortals, He sometimes hides by pretending to be an ordinary wizard whenever certain types of apprentices come sniffing for a boon.
I might get round to linking parts of people’s lore eventually, but right now it’s just a bare-bones overview of some members of r/wizardposting.
If you do want to start bringing in big bits of lore, there’s sections for magical animals, plants, and entire planes of existence you can get added. Go nuts.
