Avowed<\/em> <\/strong>is one of the most hotly anticipated RPGs of the coming console generation. Set in Obsidian Entertainment\u2019s world of Eora, first featured in the studio\u2019s Pillars of Eternity<\/em> games, the trailer’s\u00a0first-person sword-and-sorcery style has many fans hoping to get their fantasy fix in the absence of news from Bethesda about The Elder Scrolls 6<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The world of Eora contains many different races, including relatively standard fantasy Elves and Dwarves. However, the divinely mutated Godlike are among the strangest races in Avowed<\/em><\/a>, if they can be called a single race at all, and are sure to provide some great roleplaying opportunities in the upcoming RPG.<\/p>\n

The gods of Eora were created by an ancient people called the Engwithans<\/a>\u00a0who formed a civilization was supposedly roughly evenly composed of the various civilized \u201cKith\u201d races of the world. The Engwithans created the gods, each based on a pure ideal, after they discovered the absence of gods and harnessed Animancy \u2013 the science of souls \u2013 to create false idols from the harvested souls of their own people.<\/p>\n

The fact that the gods had been created by mortals was a secret so tightly kept that when a single wood elf inadvertently discovered the truth an Inquisition was set up immediately to destroy all evidence of the subsequent atheist movement. By the time of Pillars of Eternity<\/em>, the gods of Eora<\/a> are in a strange spot. They are immensely powerful beings that each represent a single core ideal, and despite being made by mortals they are able to have intense and notable impacts on the lives of their Kith followers.<\/p>\n

One of the biggest ways that the impact of the gods is felt across is Eora is through the Godlike. The Godlike are Kith that are blessed \u2013 or, depending on point of view, cursed \u2013 by one of the gods. They are revered and often feared by the other Kith, and are believed to have a particular connection to their god, though characters like Vatnir the Priest in Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire<\/em><\/a> find their blessing to be more of an inconvenience, and opportunistically exploit their perceived holiness.<\/p>\n

The Godlike vary greatly in appearance. Not only can any of Pillars of Eternity<\/em>‘s Kith races<\/a> be born a Godlike, but their appearance will differ greatly depending on which god chose them. Here are the main types of Godlike and the way their blessings manifest:<\/p>\n
