Physical God: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[Everworld]]'' the gods of mythology are supposed to have abandoned Earth centuries ago for an alternate universe, taking a portion of their followers with them. They were later joined by gods from other worlds, too, who bear no resemblance to anything from human legend. Including one [[God of Evil|rather nasty one]] named Ka Anor.

* In Mika Waltari's ''The Etruscan'', the title character Turms is ultimately a "lucumo" or a holy king, not much short of a god, and can summon storms, can't be killed in battle and can converse with gods. For most part, though, he doesn't know it yet.

* In [[Robert E. Howard]]'s [[Conan the Barbarian]] story "[[Iron Shadows in the Moon|Shadows in The Moonlight]]" [[Dreaming of Times Gone By|Olivia dreams]] that the statues were [[Taken for Granite]] at the hands of a Physical God, after they had [[Cold-Blooded Torture|tortured to death]] his [[Half-Human Hybrid|demigod son]].

* In L. Jagi Lamplighter's [[Prospero's Daughter]] trilogy, the Greek wind gods are major characters. They are, in fact, balanced with the main characters, Prospero's children.

** Diagon was also this, considering that he is a [[Eldritch Abomination|half-mile-wide octopus thing]] who can {{spoiler|change size, mind control people, control the weather, and a few other godly things.}}

* [[Norse Mythology|Odin]], [[Egyptian Mythology| Ra]], and [[Hindu Mythology| Rama]] in ''[[Samurai Jack]]'' (the three deities who created Jack's sword for the purpose of defeating Aku) seem to be this, although some fans have suggested they might be [[Sufficiently Advanced Alien]]s.

* Cupid, Mother Nature, and Father Time are all recurring characters on ''[[The Smurfs]]''.
