Creator deity

Uncommon card · No. 107350

A creator deity is a deity responsible for the creation of humanity, the Earth and the universe. In creation myths, the world often comes into being organically, e.g. sprouting from a primal seed, sexually, by miraculous birth (sometimes by parthenogenesis), by hieros gamos, violently, by the slaying of a primeval monster, or artificially, by a divine demiurge or "craftsman". Sometimes, a god is involved, wittingly or unwittingly, in bringing about creation. In monotheism, the single deity is often also the creator; similarly, a number of monolatristic traditions separate a secondary creator from a primary transcendent being, identified as a primary creator.
