=== Demiourgos ===
Colloquially Demiurges, literally meaning crafter, is used to describe those deiforms that focus primarily in the cultivation and shaping of their specific [[Realm]], can have any number of origins and are completely sovereign in their space with the consequential problems that makes in reality, continual expansion of its realm attracts unwanted attention so some Demiurges will make minions or items or contract with a [[Caller]] to bring in the means to empower itself.<ref>The Demiourgos (technically correct) or Demiurge is a divine being that is first and foremost a craftsman of its own realm and/or universe.  They may originate from a variety of sources but as they encapsulate a large region or are given the means of seizing a place, the first tools to their hands are those of realm creation, and they often swallow up a place or define a pocket realm.  Most are some form of Other that already has some ability to swallow up places or influence the people who then influence the place (Nex Machina, Bugges, Celestial Horrors, Harbingers, some other practitioners).  Most deities have demiurgic power, but the Others labeled Demiourgos lean heavily into it and place it primary in their capabilities.

Because the means by which they seize a place and the power of that place and thereby become deific is so haphazard, the Demiourgos is often somewhat reckless.  They manage and manipulate their domains and may be mad kings or arbiters of draconian rule, and because they dwell there, the place must be penetrated for the (oft nascent) deity to be defeated and those trapped released; a place where the Demiourgos manipulates reality itself.

Draoidhe often interact heavily with such, protecting and/or expanding the place in exchange for the ability to unload the divine being's power with but a few words or simple practice.  Demiourgos can go in three directions, either expanding recklessly by their own hands and exposing themselves to being found, targeted, and exterminated, expanding out through a mechanism (such as items of divine power, living rituals, bugge glyphs), or entering a stasis state and relying on a Draoidhe to do the expanding work for them, a keen mind with understanding of the landscape of man finding the times, places, and potential victims to swallow up an area and add it to the demiurgic domain. - Wildbow on Discord</ref>

[[Deus ex Machina|The Blue Heron Throne]] is one such example.
