Dark Gods
The "Dark Gods" (alt. Overlords of the Fallen Grace) are deities that spread that of mischief and chaos, though not all of them are labeled as such, such as Loki, a Norse God or Set, an Egyptian God. To be labeled as a Dark God, one must cross a certain line that draws the attention of the world upon you, a Deity, in a negative way. The ones who label Dark Gods, are the "Observers" (alt. That Who Watches), and the only individual within their ranks capable of this, is their leader.

An example would be the first declared Dark God, Cznerabog, a Slavic Deity whose name means "Black God". By spreading chaos through the start of the Resulting War, he gained the animosity of the entire world upon him. This led to ten Heroes to descend upon him and fight him, leading to his inevitable demise.

As for what he did, specifically, it was to take the state of the world and elevate it by several degrees. Due to his actions, Europe had been fragmented immensely, and it took decades to restore the natural state of the land. Because of this, he had been targetted. After his defeat, the ten Heroes were used by the leaders of each Pantheon and Faction to draw the war to an eventual close.

Powers
Because of their diversity, and because of their darkened nature, Dark Gods possess varying powers of high magnitude. Be that they possess the power to cause natural disasters, to influence the world, to create unnatural disasters - they possess these abilities in spades due to their unrelenting desire for more power and control.

Czernabog was capable of splitting the entire continent of Europe into several pieces and fight against several Gods, which included Odin and Zeus and make it out alive. His eventual downfall was when he concluded that ten non-Deities were incapable of defeating him. Their battle shook the world, but the damage that was caused was temporary.

A Dark Gods' specialty lies in the power of darkness; due to their connections to evil, they possess the depravity required to handle the most forbidden of spells without much of a drawback, and they're more open to dangerous spells and rituals, to the point that they would even use their powers to destroy part of the world, which other Deities attempt not to do, even when in peril. This was the reason that Cznerabog was able to escape after being cornered by many Deities; because he turned it into a battle of his defeat means the destruction of the land, he was able to draw the battle out and escape.

Members
There are currently four Deities that have been labeled as Dark Gods by the Observers.
