	*~~Fire~~:		*'''Rekkazen''': The god of fire and passion, another god whose touch was felt everywhere. It is said that he was so destructive, the nations forced him to stay where he was, but he always sent his children to talk to his family.

	*~~Metal~~:		*'''Tetsujin''': The god of steel and industry, the most martial of the gods.

The Gods of the [[Rankai Lands]] were legendary figures that created the realm. They have been legends for as long as writing has existed.<br>

=History=
In the beginning, it is said that the lands of Rankai were united and peaceful. The spirits (or Kami, the legends vary) that oversaw the lands were in balance with each other, and each of them gifted the lands with their domain. The children of the spirits grew, with the spirit of wind creating birds, the spirit of earth creating the animals, and so on and so forth. However, three of the spirits created things that caused problems. The spirit of darkness created youkai, evil beings, unbalanced with the world, that he claimed would challenge other denizels. The spirit of dragons' children were clearly the most powerful creatures in Rankai, as by his own pride, he could do no less, and they interfered onto other spirits' domains. And all of the spirits claimed some part of the humans as theirs, as their presence reinforced the spirits and gave them praise. A war of the gods began, from which there could be no victor.<br>
After the war, each spirit claimed a piece of land as its own, and settled there. Their presence allowed for a particular type of terrain or element to flourish, regardless of weather patterns or geography. The lands associated to a particular spirit became the [[Rankai Lands]], causing nations to grow around these elements or terrains. During these times, men crafted stories of the war of the gods, and began to worship them.. until it became simpler to consider them legends. Real or not, the gods of Rankai were no longer awake and prayer to them was tradition more than anything else.<br>

=Purpose=
If they exist, they are currently dormant.<br>
