Deities and Pantheons of URSA

I will talk briefly here. I may be the kreator of URSA, but even I know not to make the gods angry. Below are a listing of the more DOMINAT deities and pantheons. If I didn't list a certain god or goddess...don't call upon their wrath. Contact me and see if their presence is in URSA...or else you will feel my WRATH! Also a side note: To not offend anybody with religion and their personal beliefs, I do not capitalize the word(s) god or goddess, even if it is the first of a sentence. I am a Christian and only capitalize the 'G' when I am talking about My Lord. I also spell creator with a 'K' when talking about myself. I do this for myself, so it you think it is weird...well, then either don't dwell on it or drive on.
