Ardos, Quill of Brilliant Creation

Ardos is the penultimate magus among the Archmages, the first to pierce the unknowable shroud of Elderlaw, and the architect of their great quest. As a result, he is conventionally seen as the leader of the pantheon, even if in practicality all the Gods are equal. Ardos is called the Quill of Brilliant Creation because he is considered the divine embodiment of life. When the Luminarchs stole Elderlaw, it was Ardos who inherited the power to create life itself. As such, he is the patron of design, the example to which all leaders and strategists look for guidance, and the lord of the faithful who blesses them with healthy and promising children, and ambitions in their adult lives to achieve and perform great feats. To be considered powerful or have good leadership qualities is called Ardosiin.

Ardos was the prince of Irdaal during the Mage Wars in the Allorn Arch Era, a scion in a long line of powerful Archmage rulers of the powerful Irdaal Princedom. Following Ardos's ascension to Godhood, Irdaal shattered into civil strife which it still had not recovered from, splitting into Irdaal proper, Selv'Ird, and Osc'Ird which all claim the legacy of Ardos and his family in the past. Ardos is distant from the faithful unlike many of the other Gods, because it said that he is the divine architect of their lineages, and is constantly planning more powerful Mage births by aligning fates and ensuring the birth of Ardosiin Mageborn, those born until the starting of the Mages.

Ben-Halur, Mighty Reveling Shepherd

Ben-Halur is a character of massive contradictions in his being, but what is certain, is that if there were ever a God who could be considered kindest or most soft-hearted among Religions, it is Ben-Halur. Ben-Halur is the God of revelry, of party, and of entertainment. He is the patron of Mage-Communion, the idea that Mages should fight for each other's rights and well-being and find a common cause to spread kindness. When Elderlaw was taken, Ben-Halur inherited the power of Body Magic and the self, which he developed further into the known school used in the modern day. Ben-Halur embodies the desire of Mages to use Magic in ways to enjoy life, and aim to dissuade and disable, rather than to maim or kill.

Ben-Halur was the only Luminarch who was not an Archmage Prince. As a mortal, Ben-Halur was a Selvath from the Golden Forests in the north of Irdaal. In an attempt to save his people from the march of the Archmages, he joined forces with Ardos and the other Luminarchs. While the other Luminarchs have a great variety of relationships, every single one of them is a fond friend of Ben-Halur, who in turn is also the most common to appear before the faithful to aid them in their struggles. Ben-Halur also represents an aspect of transhumanism, as he incorporates the parts of animals into himself to become bigger and stronger, transcending the limitations of natural creation.

Catheron, Binder of the Astral Flames

In sharp contrast to Ben-Halur, Catheron is the stereotypical image of an Allorn Archmage at the height of the Arch Era. Most powerful among the Luminarchs, Catheron is the crystallized embodiment of "might make right through Magic". He is the God of Magic manifestation, of the right to rule for Mages, and of the superiority of Magic as a means to an end, to anything else. He preaches the necessity for Arcanocracy, government forms ruled purely by Mages due to their inherent superiority to the mundane, and is also generally considered the founder of the Kathar, as he had strong connections with their founding Cults. To some Catheron is worshiped out of fear, to ward the mind against the threat of the corrupting and seductive power of Magic, and the evil it enables.

Catheron was the most powerful Archmage who resides on the continent that would later form the Dread Empire, and much of the Kathar's modern teachings come from his hand. While the other Archmages had varied reasons for their assault on Elderlaw, for Catheron it was pure greed for power, and to strengthen the Black Witches, his covenant of students and supporters. He is continually prayed to for divine guidance on the usage of Magic. Catheron is held to conformity with the other Luminarchs only by the brilliance of Ardos who always outsmart Catheron, who nonetheless attempts to overturn their hierarchy and become the new leader of the pantheon.
