Gods and Patrons

Several gods are worshipped in the Endless Seas. In this part of the fabriverse, the locals of the Free Cities call them "Lords". Despite the name, all Lords have no gender, but instead present themselves as they choose. Some of these Lords are worshipped as Patrons for Warlocks and are willingly giving their powers to these Warlocks for their own hidden purposes.

Each lord has a Benevolent and Malefic form, the latter being a mirror of their values, a shadowy part of their mind that wishes to gain control. They are essentially the children of the Lords. It is unknown why these Malefic Princes exist,but if it is the will of the Worldweaver then so be it.
