Xixoch

• He is in his god form 95% of the time. He only takes human form when forced to by the other gods to attend meetings or interact with humans when necessary. 

Brutal and Brash,  Xixoch is as unpredictable and wild as war itself. He is always in pursuit of another fight- another battle, and strength in combat. He believes in proving oneself through trials and finding respect through winning against your opponents. Naturally, this raises conflict among other gods. Which of course, he only seems to revel in anyways. He mostly keeps to himself- working behind the scenes to orchestrate terrible wars that push people into 'finding their strength'; which ultimately ends up being bewildering to most of the gods since- he genuinely seems to be trying to help. However, it's hard to rationalize all the people he hurts along the way. 

Diety of war, he spends most of his time plotting how to turn humans..and gods-against each other. Spiteful towards those who can find happiness in peace, he is only truly happy when starting terrible wars and watching the aftermath. Seeing him is a terrible omen. He generally refuses to take a mortal/humanoid form and will remain in his god form- unlike the other deities who will resemble humans in order to fit more easily into their society. He most frequently refuses to stoop to that level. He does on occasion take the form in order to turn people in the wrong direction, but as a human he is very aloof and has an extreme better-than-thou complex. He is a neutral god- despite his often 'evil' actions, and generally just wants to cause fighting no matter where he goes. This occasionally means assisting the good gods- if it will give him what he wants. He's extremely self-serving and mostly as long as he's entertained he doesn't really care for what results.

He isn't entirely evil, and in truth, believes war brings out the strongest aspects of people. He thinks that war breeds champions and champions will bring about the future, a future built of the strong and resilient. He fights for the survivors, but sometimes struggles to understand that strength can come in forms different than one of battle.

Because of his often misguided nature, he's often dismissed by gods of both sides. Not evil enough to be considered an evil god, yet not good enough to be among the benevolent gods either. Being outcast from both groups drives him to being quite the bitter individual, even if it is by his own choice and behavior. He has, on multiple occasions, gotten into spats with Serafina herself. Though he very much does not like her, he's not come out of a single of those spats the victor and as such still deems her as worthy (of some degree) of his respect. Most of the gods view him as an unintentional troublemaker.
