The Lesser Gods of the Postmodern Pantheon are the minor deities of the Postmodern Pantheon in Torregrises. Their Latinizing names map postmodern vices onto archaic domains. The pantheon is said to have resurged: “Its gods have names.”
The gods
- Nix: snow, drugs, “all the things that chill”
- Anxifer: the disquieting; the media
- Intrico: entanglement; politics
- Intimus: the secret; sex
- Intactus: intangibility; tribes
- Tentator: temptation; money
Relation to the Pantheon
These gods are the abstract “theological” level. The Pantheon proper maps the deadly sins onto figures of power (Sabas is Pride, Sucor is Wrath) and is their worldly incarnation.
