It’s my turn to set the Community Challenge for this week…

'Behold!
The God of Heart Transplants

Referencing Aztec mythology to re-imagine a once terrifying deity, into a healing one, who now guides surgeons in their work’

Theme

This weeks theme is ‘Old Gods, New Jobs’

Past civilizations had deity’s for everything, ones that helped explain natural phenomena, others that governed all aspects of everyday life… there was even one for door hinges

You are tasked with creating Gods/Goddesses for our modern life, they can be referenced from the past or be entirely new creations

    Avaron, God of Corporate Greed


    Avaron’s touch turns everything to profit, regardless of moral cost.

    DALL-E Prompt:

    Avaron, the God of Corporate Greed, as a modern deity. This god is dressed in a suit of shimmering gold but with a hollow chest, symbolizing the emptiness of greed. His touch turns everything to profit, regardless of moral cost, and he carries a scepter or briefcase representing his power over wealth and commerce. His expression is cold and calculating, embodying the sinister aspect of unchecked corporate greed in the modern world.

        This still looks nice! And religion is open for interpretation isn’t it? Consider it the first schism in the church of Avaron :)

        That prompt is a real hit-or-miss, I know. I’ve regenerated it multiple times but it came out worse with every attempt.

      Pryopticon, the Watcher in the Shadows


      Pryopticon reigns in the unseen sanctum of surveillance, a deity revered in hushed tones by those who seek control through knowledge. In a world where privacy is a fading myth, Pryopticon’s gaze pierces through the digital veil, unearthing secrets and fears..

      One more because I finally managed to get Midjourney to kind of make what I wanted :)

      Midjourney prompt:

      oil painting style, cybernetic monster made of dozens eyes, the god of surveillance, in a temple-like server room --ar 4:3 --s 75
