A tall woman with silky silver hair to her ankles and icy eyes who enjoys blue patterned robes that hide her flesh.

Egos: God of Ugliness, Blood, and Fate. Shade’s more powerful husband. Represented by bats and blindfolds. A lanky, weak man with bleached skin and visible blood vessels.

Shade: God of Beauty, Night, and Desire. Wife of Egos. Represented by raccoons and booze. A beautiful, curvy woman with short, black hair, dark skin, and violet eyes.
