First sample encountered after first supposed termination (designation : "Machina").
Biology & Technology used not recognized.
Origin of the "gods" ;
They are supposed to be a highly advanced alien race. They possess unknown levels of technology, but among the highly probale are: immortal life (genetic manipulation - [TO CONFIRM]), body manipulation (Neural switching, Mind transfer - [TO CONFIRM]), and advanced scientific knowledge of the inner working of the fabric of the universe (Faster than light travel, Dimensional crossing - [TO CONFIRM]).
Some of them (it is supposed a population or society is behind them) work as "administrators" in the different worlds they are "stationed" at. With an apparent strict non-interference policy, they have to watch over the different populations they are given, with the only real guideline being to prevent said world's complete annihilation [TO CONFIRM].
Motivations ;
While the true reasons behind their administrative work is unknown, they have shown to be interested in the neural networks (neuronal brain pattern imprints at the moment of death), social interactions and societal dynamics of the beings present on the worlds they administer. It is supposed that they could be using worlds for purposes such as research material, general entertainment, or even touristic destinations for their general population (if they are proven to have one).
General behavior and comportment ;
Even if they must adhere to very strict non-personal-interference guidelines, most "gods" are free to do what they want with their given population as long as they respect the rules, or find ways to work around them. And even though they are highly intelligent and technologically more advanced than any known race, they have shown very basic behavioral patterns in their governance.
Some of them exhibit deep megalomania and disregard for life, bordering on psychosis, while others show deep responsibility and attention for the people in their care. However most are distant and act only on whims, or when taken by a particular interest in a situation, given historical records provided by the encountered sample.

Their personalities are unique and varied. As such, extreme caution should be taken when engaging in a conversation with one, as a careless remark could trigger disastrous reactions from him/her/it depending on their background. Showing reverence to the power they possess is something most of them like and should be adopted in the presence of one unless told otherwise.
Hierarchical structure ;
While each race will get a personal "God" attached to them, they are often assisted by a varied range of minor ones, representing each a moral concept or idea. Examples range from Justice, War, Wisdom, Death, Nature, etc. to even basic elements such as Light, Fire, Earth, etc. However it often happens that the "God" of a chosen race will assume some, if not multiples of these secondary roles himself if they suit his personality or general dogma.
They do answer to an unknown higher authority which dictates, and enforces, the rules and guidelines they are bound to. These supposed "God Sovereigns" are thought to be the highest on the pyramid of power.
List of Known Administrators ;
Earth ; Unknown (Human), Unknown (XSS A.I.s), Drasil ; Machina (Clockworks), Unknowns,

Daybreak Palace: Legends of the Guiding Threads
It is said that the universe is a tapestry, woven by hundreds of thousands of tiny threads. Among those threads there are those that affect the fate of the entire tapestry. They are known as the Guiding Threads. Wherever that thread may go, others are destined to follow. This is the legend of a single Guiding Thread. On the night before her twentieth birthday, Tianna discovers a secret about herself that had been kept from her since the day she was born. She was the heir to the throne of Althaedor and the Queen was patiently awaiting her arrival. The problem was those who were not patiently waiting. The select few among the members of the Queen’s Council that were aware of Tianna’s existence jumped at the opportunity to raise a naive princess themselves before she reached her mother’s side. Thus she sets out on a journey to meet the Queen and find the truth before she is caught by her greedy pursuers. (Cover photo by Louis Maniquet)

My Intergalactic Boyfriend
Rae is an 18 year old boy, with "Fluffy Cat-Like Ears and a Tail", who is going into his senior year in high school at the lowest point in his life. Rae has been relentlessly bullied and tormented for his entire childhood because of his physical differences. When Rae's last bit of hope for a life with meaning is crushed, the Cosmos decides to send him a guide to help him find his Purpose and grant him Love. First and foremost this is a Science Fiction, Fantasy-Adventure story. The story has a strong "Slow-Burn" Gay Romance sub-plot (Male x Male / Boy x Boy) that is central to the events in the story. (i.e. Characters are not going to fall in love with each other immediately.) You will likely find that the pacing in the beginning is intentionally slower than some other stories. To some it may even resemble a slice-of-life / school-life style story early on. This is intentional and is my personal choice for character developement and world-building, but I assure you there will be plenty of Fantasy and Adventure later in the story. Hopefully, the various mix of elements will appeal to a wide range of readers. This story is published only on: RoyalRoad / Tapas / Wattpad This story is published only under the ScreenName: SpuriousSimulacrum
