Ma'ta'ke Gods
Gods in the Ma'ta'ke Pantheon
Mata'ke
Mata'ke himself is the head of the clan, and the god of snow, judgement, practicality, order, and strength. He is famous for his military cunning which he uses to command the clan of Gods to fend off the dark ones. His abilities as an arbitrator between the other gods is also often applauded in mythological stories, with many historical courts invoking his name as the ultimate judge of all disputes. His physical appearance is that of a golden furred M'sai, wearing thick Nav'twir furs held together by golden clasps. In the case of his battle regalia, over these furs he wears a cuirass of iron with his feet and hands wrapped in thick leather. He wields a simple spear with an iron tip, and keeps a silver studded sword in a scabbard on his left side. On his head he wears a visored helmet of similar material to his curiass with a fabric coif underneath, however most statues omit head wear.

Benevolent Entities
S'randarr
The very same sun which is worshiped by those of the S'randmarr faith is known as a benevolent and immortal entity in the Ma'ta'ke pantheon. S'randarr is believed to be the source of all positive energy on Adhoami, which it supplies through an incorporeal aether to the Tajara. The faithfuls assert that this positive energy mends wounds and cures illnesses for mortals, but is of greater use to the gods who can enhance their powers and wield the energy to defeat various evil spirits. Despite all these beneficial traits, the sun is not thought of as sapient, but rather as having the intelligence of an animal. In most mythological stories it requires protection and shepherding from the gods against corrupting and destructive influences.
Ambivalent Entities

Raskara
Also well known as the Adhomai's moon, it is believed to be the antithesis to S'randarr and the source of all negative energy.
