Faragod is the god of lightning in Antiterra, the local, weakened version of Zeus, who impaled the cursed god Seth on the top of the Eiffel Tower.

Spanish entryFaragod

He has a falcon’s head, scaled armor and a mace hurling blue lightning — in form closer to a raging Horus.

History

The Rerum divinarum et humanarum records that after the flood, men stunned by lightning began to worship “Zeus o Júpiter, el que luego sería conocido como Faragod por Zaragoza” (“Zeus or Jupiter, later known as Faragod for Zaragoza”); the sleeping gods then woke in the Astral Plane.

After Event L of 1835 and the albino revolution, Antiterra’s governments banned electricity and raised the Prismatic Wall. Faragod has since been largely confined to the past, where he was confused with the weakened Greco-Roman Zeus.

In Antiterra’s final cycle, when the cursed Egyptian god Seth, with barely one hand left, rose bent on cosmic destruction, Faragod dropped from the sky, ambushed him wrestling-style and impaled him on the top of the Eiffel Tower. Seth’s blood pooled in the blue water around it. The water wants to taste one of the companions; Sven, the Nordic youth at once child and adolescent, tastes it. Faragod then ascended.
