Elmincár has a fair number of gods (about 21 at my last count), all of which are real. However, in keeping with the previous entries in this thread, I shall post about the two most unusual ones. This is also because most of the others do not have much in the way of interesting material, which is itself partially because several of them are occupied fighting Magán (spoilers: they lose), and many of the rest simply don't care about mortals.
