Yuuzhan Vong Gods/Hierarchy

Okay, I was thinking, and I realized that I only know a few of the Gods, and only the stories behind the three main ones.

Yun-Yuuzhan, the creator and highest god (who is also dead?), Yun-Yammka, god of war and Yun-Harla, god of deceit (Trickster god), who are twins, and Yun-Shuno, god of something or other that I can't remember now.

Does anyone have a complete list of the Yuuzhan Vong gods? And possibly the stories behind them? Not important, just interested.

 

Well, let's see...


Yun-Yuuzhan is the creator God. I assume that he resembles a Yuuzhan Vong, though I'm not certain. He created the universe by giving of his own body parts to make various things, so all Yuuzhan Vong must emulate him by hurting and scaring themselves. Apparently, he survived the Great Shaping, and is still considered the greatest of the Gods. The Shaper caste holds a great connection to him.

Yun-Yammka looks like a War Co-ordinator. He revels in conflict and destruction. Not much else to say about him. really... Oh, he's the patron deity of the warrior class (obviously).

Yun-Harla is the Trickster, the Cloaked Goddess. She loves deception, tricks and lies. I can't think of any physical descriptions of her. During the days after the great shaping, she tricked the weakened Yun-Yuzhann into giving her some of the secrets of creation. Her followers tend to be spies and such, though it appears that the priestly class have a particular affinity for her. I guess you could call her a God of Intelligence... but only of the devious kind.

Yun-Shuno is the multi-eyed patron deity of the Shamed Ones. It is he who one should pray to if one wishes to elevate themself from their Shamed position. Seems to be looked upon with some distain by the other classes.

Yun-Ne'shel is Yun-Harla's handmaiden. After Yun-Harla tricked Yun-Yuzhann into giving her some of the secrets of creation, she gaves these secrets to Yun-Ne'Shel, who in turn passed them to the Yuuzhan Vong Supreme Overlord (and, in turn, the Shapers).

Yun-Txiin and Yun-Qu'aah are the Lovers, and the Gods of balance. They are the patrons of Love. Not much has been said about them.

That's pretty much off the top of my head, so please, forgive any glaring errors.
