| − | ===Origin===

| − | Gods are the ruling divine beings of a religion, directly representing the dominant authority of a religion. In Canon, the deity of the Abrahamic religion, commonly called [[God]], seems to serve as the primary power in the Universe. Although his continuing silence and lack of intervention has led to war and other conflicts between organisms. Due to the as of yet unknown nature of the [[God]] of Supernatural, it is difficult to make exact comparisons of their role and overall abilities.

She also states that she and the other Gods were on Earth before [[God]], or that their religions were practiced before his. Odin stated that the "real" Apocalypse will start when Midgard Serpent Jörmungandr rises up and Odin himself will be consumed by a big wolf. Although he was killed by [[Lucifer]].

| − | Other pagan gods are able to influence the weather and vegetation positively and negatively as well. Like [[The Vanir]], who could cause growth and health of the crops and like [[Madge and Edward Carrigan]], who gave mild weather. Both seemed to be able to perform these in exchange for human sacrifices and their influence vanished in the lack of thereof. [[Mercury]] can also influence the growth of vegetation positively or negatively, as demonstrated when a dead herb sprouts in his presence<sup>[[5.19 Hammer Of The Gods]]</sup>.
