God of mischief and fertility, and one of only two deities at the highest power rank. No one knows β or clearly remembers β how Asonsi came to be. Much of what people blame on Asonsi had nothing to do with him, while the things he has actually caused came from the slightest comment made at exactly the right moment, setting off chain reactions with enormous consequences. He has no fixed shape, appearing as whatever confidant or advisor best suits the situation β sometimes a sage, sometimes a soldier, sometimes a medic or a judge, sometimes a counsellor or a companion β but he usually appears as a man, and most often as a travelling bard. He turns up throughout history at key moments, often in seemingly unrelated contexts, nudging them one way or the other, and he is as likely to introduce the young lovers of opposing nations as to sow strife inside a powerful household, regardless of race or region.
