The Ancient One

Summary
The Ancient One is the creator of all things, including the other Gods. From the beginning of existence, the Ancient One has existed. At some point, the Ancient One sacrificed itself to create Numis, the Elemental Pantheon, and Humanity. During its death to create everything, shards of the Ancient One were scattered around Numis, the remains on the power of The Ancient One.

History
Before time, the Ancient One existed. Creating everything, allowing mortals and other Gods to exist, the Ancient One is regarded as the creator of everything in most religions.

Before Time
Not much is known about the time before time, except that the Ancient One had existed during and before it.

Creation of Time and the Elements
Time was created before anything else, a linear path for everything to be recorded. Starting with the Sun, he then created the Moon and stars to light up the night sky. Afterwards, he formed the Elements; Fire, Water, Air, Earth, Darkness, and the Deep and from those, the Elemental Pantheon.

Creation of Numis
The Creation of Time was not the last contribution. The Divine One created Numis using the other Gods as building blocks, embedding the Elemental Pantheon into Numis itself. They would not hold together on their own though. They needed an element, some sort of binder. The Ancient One sacrificed itself and became the very fabric that held the deities together, and in giving the planet a life to hold itself together, another life was born, Humanity.
