Hormus is the benevolent Abbaki creator of Attovia, parts of his colossal body can be found littering the planet, often subject to worship individually. One of the few lucky Abbaki to hold an Ember he has turned Attovia into his own chrysalis creating a number of sentient races to create a World Stone in which his Soul finally resides after the results of The Great Conflict. The Meyda encoded form of Hormus still holds the power of the Ember and thus creatures who are given proper Tethers to the World Stone may be given sentience under unique circumstances. Unlike many other deities of Attovia Hormus has no interest in gathering followers, instead focused on the future of his people. He has no heralds or children, and is content to allow Contracts of Sacrifice and Belief to be made between him and those who worship him.
Hormus does not mind that his creation does not understand what he is or the true scale of his being. The Abbaki once pruned and cared for the Tree of Time when the Multiverse still grew. Holding an Ember such as he does means Hormus has some small yet meaningful measure over the flow of time and consistency of the laws of nature as defined by the trunk of the Tree of Time. Without this power Abbaki are still remarkably adept at the fundamental Meyda Functions and can create fully functional ecological systems, but it is not until one holds an Ember that they can fulfill their lifecycle by creating sentient beings. The entirety of The Lev’el System was constructed by Hormus using an absurd amount of Coalescence and much Conduction to place the planets in desirable and pleasing orbits.
