Embodiments are somewhat of a mystery population of the Nine Kingdoms, though they are known in the Nine Kingdoms and believed in on Earth. Most don't interact with the general populace of the Nine Kingdoms and Earth, due to being super busy.
Embodiments are the personified being of a concept such as, Love, the North Wind, the Tooth Fairy or Hope. They still count as Legends but are much more powerful than an average Legend, since they are able to shape-shift, cast spells and wield powers relating to their personification however, they are not Gods; they can still die. Unlike the average Legend, who upon will regenerate over time, Embodiments stay dead. When this happens, a descendant of theirs (a child or grandchild usually) or a human or Legend with similar traits will be chosen to become the next respective Embodiment. Embodiments may choose to have servants or sub-Embodiment assistants, for example Love could have an assistant who is the Embodiment of Familial Love or some other type of Love, although some Embodiments choose not to.
As Embodiments are still Legends, they are also able to sire offspring with a human if they so desire. These Half-Legends will be slightly more powerful than the average Half-Legend and are able to become Legends also.
Embodiments have names, such as Mr Dark or names associated to their personification, such as Lumi, which means snow in Finnish.
Some embodiments choose not to get involved in the affairs of humans and lesser Legends but some will, to amuse themselves or out of genuine concern or interest. Coincidentally, Embodiments are able to travel to Earth, doing their duties. They can also, if they are believed in or if they choose to, interact with humans. They can also take other Legends with them to Earth, willingly or otherwise.
Some of the known Embodiments are:
There are many other Embodiments, of course, they just haven't made themselves known yet.
