I don't know about that. I think there are plenty of settings, not just Aralis, where entities described as "Gods" are just as petty, whimsical, and humanized as gods in many "actual" pantheons. I agree that the symbology and depth of these creations may not be at the same level as those that were spawned from actual cultures, but they have some comparison...especially since the "actual" mythos often helps spawn the "fantasy" one.
Re: Well, yes.
