Loa

Loa Gods Of Sound by JonasDeRo

These unchained, immensely powerful beings who’s creation is a complete mystery are some of the most dangerous beings in the universe. Their names are Loa. The greatest minds of universe believe that these beings are either the chaos side of the The Great One that split off during his formation or primal creations during the birth of the universe from incredibly strong willed beings. Whatever their creation is, each of these beings vexes all other beings in the universe―Elder Gods and the beings of Fate alike for their wild and meddling nature.


These beast traverse the universe in hundreds of celestial bodies but as one mind. This give them the ability of semi omniprescenese. The great powerful beings travel the universe to look for sentient life. Their goal seems to be to corrupt life, remaking them in their image. The Loas recreate this life and give them diversity of form but one overarching will, one spirit. Most races in the universe have one versatile form but diversity of spirits.


The Loa flips that on its head. Instead corrupting a race and making them diverse in form and creating one overarching leadership caste. Then they convince that race to worship them, growing their strength even more.


Diversity of Form has its benefits over diversity of spirit. Diversity of form but with one spirit ensures that every beings is created for a purpose. There’s no soul searching, or endless self questioning of their purpose in life. They are built for a task and therefore fulfilling that task give them purpose and meaning. However this lack of diversity of spirit means that progression is a much slower, since only the leadership caste have the ability to create ideas.


This is where diversity of spirit benefits. It allows many different spirits to congregate and come up with many different ways of looking at problems. Due to having one form, these forms are most likely versatile. So they may not be the best at any one task like beings who benefit from diversity of form but they can be safaicatory at every task. However, there’s also a downside to having diversity of spirit.


There’s a high chances of disagreements and inability to get along. The diversity of spirits demands interior conflict. This interior conflict can maybe lead to extinction or aiding their current enemy. One spirit have little worry about these problems. The only interior conflict that arise is through the leaderships caste but even then it doesn’t leave as lasting scars as those with diversity of spirit because the leadership caste is smaller and therefore easier to sway. Plus most of the leadership caste do not fight often, to them, conflict like playing a game of chess.


Loa’s eternal goal seemed to be to populate the universe with their image, spreading like a plague. Unlike a plague, they are filled with ideals, infrastructure, technology and their own version of society. Their children attack many natural races and one another. Most Elder Gods and Fates considered register them as a threat as soon as they trespass their domain and manipulate condition for their pawns to end them.



Great and oldest Loas Adarna


Adrana is like the crown jewel of the universe. A beast that values beauty and Glory. It flies through the universe eating stars for sustenances. When it fly over a planet too close it’s like the entire sky is painted with flames. The Great Phoenix sheds feathers that look like crystals filled with roving orange flames. When someone touch these feathers they obtain immortality. These people are called Phoenicians. If their body is cut up into pieces they will be consume by flames and put back together to whatever the time they first gain the powers of the phoenix. No matter the death, their body will be reborn as soon as they hit death. If they died form old age they will be reborn again, almost like a reset clock. The only way someone can die once being blessed by the Phoenix is for them to stab themselves in the heart with the clear intention of dying. Not even the God of Death can kill a Phoenician that is virtually indestructible by all forces besides the Great One.


When he create his minions they mostly take an Avian, bipedal humanoid form. They come in several breeds with the leaders being four winged eagle like creatures. They serve as the overall spirit of the race. When one has earn enough favor from Adarna, they can ascend into a Phoenix King. Their form transform into a humanoid version of Adarna and is near al powerful.


Bahamut


Bahamut is the largest Loa and proclaim the most powerful. He mostly resembles a Serpent. Bahamut is so large that he can wrap around a entire world the size of earth. He squeezed it similar to a snake and destroy worlds. Then he harvested the core for nutrients.. He values strength resilience and domination above all.


Bahamut scales are the best materials for armor in the universe. Even possessing twice all the qualities of pure warnite. These scales are called void scales as they are often found in the void of space. The problem however is harvesting those scales. Bahamut exterior is so tough that he mostly ignore any attacks, because they are laughable weak. If one was able to retrieve scales, they can’t melt it down, else the qualities are greatly diminish.


Another quality of this great beast is his blood. If someone could drink just a pint of this beast blood, their strength will double. If the being is at their physical limit, it will grant them telekinetic augmentation/arua to allow them to push pass their limits. The blood will double their psychic abilities that have to do with aura. However, there’s a downside to drinking too much blood. Drinking more than a gallon of a blood in their life, Bahamut would sense it. Once he sense the abuse of his blood, he’ll send a telepathic attack across the universe at an level little to any organic being can withstand. They will have no defense because of the blood inside their system.


When Bahamut spread his creation on a world. He simply breath his breath on a planet. His breath when hit oxygen turns into miasma and infected weak will people and transform them into reptilian entities. His most favored subjects are turned into his wives. They have a humanoid upper form but instead of legs they have snake like body.

Uttu


Uttu is probably the most fearful of Loa―not just because of his appearances but also his methods. Uttu take on a form of an black insect with parts from many deadly insects. He would be the size of earth’s moon, but his body filled with acid makes attacking him dangerous. He values slave, ignorances and industrious.


Like the previous Loa, pieces of his bodies are useful. Wearing its carapace offer durable armor, three times better on all fronts compared to titanium. However, turning the carapace into liquids and consuming it will empower telepathic and divination abilities for a short period of time. Easily tripling its potency. How one would go about peeling the caparese off along with melting it down to eat will be another thing. It will obviously caused tremendously pain to anybody who doesn’t have one tough physiology.


Unlike other Loa, Uttu doesn’t attempt to alter other races. No. He lay thousands of eggs on a world and allow his eggs to hatch and consume the populace. Absorbing their knowledge from consuming and infecting the populace. Then the insectoid lifeform will began terraforming the planet into a toxic wasteland with little to no breathable atmosphere. The children will be led by broodmothers who will elect one among them as a queen. The queen will then be married to Uttu. The forms of Uttu’s children various depending on what races they consume from the world they hatched on.


Barong


Barong is often seen as the most benevolent of the Loa. He takes the form of a large lion of black, white and gold fur color. A mane that seem more flames than hair. He values courage, leadership and Domination. The great Lion is easily larger than Uttu but not by much.


Barong boons for battling him and escaping alive is mostly his fur. Barong sheds fur after a tough battle, allow others to capture and use it as clothing. His fur is over a hundred times tougher than steel, and highly resistant to almost every form of acid and fire. Great to use for armor as its light as any fur clothing.


Another boon one can gain from him, is during a battle Barong often roar. His roar triple as a sonic attack, telekinetic attack and an telepathic attack. The sound of the roar can burst eardrums or at the very least leave many people’s ears ringing if they are in the general direction of the roar or nearby. It has a telekinetic modify where it can smack people back from all around. Similar to a shockwave. Barong;s strength of this roar can decimate mountains and cause tidal waves. It also attacks telepathically, telling the mind it should be fearful.


There are many imitations of this roar but none like the Roar of Barong. Surviving this roar just onces allow the person adopt the ability to a lesser degree unless the being is strong enough to match Barong’s power.


When Barong procreate himself, he leaves minions that resemble bipedal humanoid felines. These felines would be of many different breeds. However, only those that resemble male lions will be the leader of his people. These lions would be considered the sons of Barongs and seek out their own dominion.


Ahriman

Ahriman often seen as the arch rival of Barong is a loa that seem like a large wolf. Similar size and power as Barong sports a fur that can harden like spikes and damaged all those that come in contact with it. Ahriman values outnumbering foes, freedom and collectivism.


Ahriman’s boon is about like Barong Ahriman fur is his boon but his fur offer a different ability. Each strand of hair share the same ability as spores. Planted in the ground, it adsorbed the nutrients from the grown and produced powerful litter of full grown wolves. The wolves will imprint themselves on the first face they see. The wolves do not age pass their prime and as long as they have food, they’ll remain stable condition. They’ll breed more pups that will be loyal to their parent’s alpha.


The second boon is a howl, but unlike Barong roar, Ahriman’s Howl affects the howler allies. All those that the howler hold as allies, will be affected by this howl. It will have a telepathic affect, where it makes allies braver. The howl will know the differences from foe and ally.


When Ahriman procreate his followers, he breeds canines like bipedal humanoids. They will have a Fox like humanoid with multiple tails leading them after a wolf pack have proved successful enough to survive.


The Fiendish Twins(Lucifer & Lilith)


Leaders of the Shayṭān. The Fiendish twins are argued by many if they are truly loa or powerful ancient demigods but they fulfilled the same roles. They are powerful djinns that seem to draw power from various sources. In the infinity dream, their spiritual forms search for host to possessed. When they possessed a host, they mutate it to fit their desires. Then they will corrupt local Djinns and use them to possess and mutate other physical entities. These are called Shaytan. Shaytan are corrupted wild djinn who follows Lucifer and Lilith in their goal to corrupt life and possessed sentient life.

Like many High level Loas, they give out boons but at great cost. Most of their boons come in the form of special abilities. These special abilities are magic systems making them versatile. They usually do it as a gift in condition for a favor in the future. The favor is never something simple, its always something that will shake most to the core of their being. Like opening a portal to allow them and their followers to possessed an entire city and mutate them.

There is no denying them either once a deal is struck. If one deny them, the magic system that was given to them turn on them. If Lucifer's gave someone the ability to use fire, their fire will turn on their body, burning them to a crisp. If Lilith gave someone the ability to transform into animals, they’ll forcibly transformed into a animal and be stuck in that form―slowly losing themselves to the animal. Humans call them devils and with good reason. Nothing they offer is ever worth the price.
