Libera


Goddess of Freedom


As some of you might have noticed we did not mention goddess named Libera when we talked about Acernos and Ascendes. This is simply because she used to be called Athea. Now she is called Libera and Athea is one of her sub goddesses. Why we are mentioning this is because Mundus RPG is still work in progress and everything and anything might, and most likely will, change. And now that we are all confused and on the right mind set, let’s talk about Libera.

Libera is the goddess of Freedom and just like Matinia she is one of the five prime gods of Ascendes. Unlike Matinia, Libera does not have a clear or active “job”. Instead she represents freedom and irregularity in the world. She allows all living things to have the freedom of choice and she counter weights the order and stability all other gods, especially Luca and Lumia, represent.

Libera is generally calm but she is also erratic and quite a trickster. Libera’s avatar is usually portrayed as a white toga wearing beautiful woman. Where other prime gods rarely assume physical form, one might actually run into Libera during a midday walk in her dominion. One notable fact about Libera’s dominion is that it is the only dominion in Ascendes that prohibits slavery.

Her three sub goddesses represent Nihilism, Anarchy and Chaos. These three facets of Libera’s nature are things that are not apparent from her title or personality. However they are a very important part of what Libera represents as a deity.

See you next Sunday!
