Stamina: Superhuman (Should be superior to humans, Any gods deficiencies can be replenished faster than biologically possible by eating and drinking)

Range: Tens of Kilometers | At least 1000 kilometers (Has Country level Divine Rank)

Standard Equipment:

• White Sword: A gigantic sword which Bilgamesh can eject from his pocket space with immense speed. As a result the shockwave it produces destroys hundreds of meters or even up to a dozen kilometers of terrain in front of Bilgamesh.
• Jet Boots: Bilgamesh is equipped with a kind of jet boots, which allow him to fly at rapid speed.
• Gauntlet: A giant gauntlet that basically works like a floating metal arm that immitates the movements of Bilgamesh's arm. He can grow it between 5 meters and 600 meters big. Bilgamesh has two of these type of gauntlet, one for each arm.
• Red Shield: A giant shield that can grow to a size of at least 2 km. The shield, as the rest of his equipment, is made from steel and by that resistant to electicity attacks by harmlessly conducting them into the ground if they manage to penetrate. Bilgamesh can strike the back of the shield with his gauntlet to unleash a devastating vibration attack, which can turn targets into fine mist.

Intelligence: Above Average (Has the knowledge and memories that would be expected of his mythological version, including the knowledge on crafting weapons. Has extensive knowledge on terraforming.)

Weaknesses: As they were born from mythology, gods can't neglect their mythology or they will cease being gods. In the worst case that could even destroy them.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• Ether Manipulation: Gods in general have some amount of control over Ether, which is how they cast their Auth Spells and use their Authority. Ether makes up space itself and also the things in it. As such Ether is everywhere, but the large flows of it are reffered to as leylines. In order for Ether to make up an object it has to be kept in place by a mold, which a god can likewise control. Without that, the object would immediately dissolve. A mold of a large terrain is called a phase. Molds and phases are often linked to being the information and data making up an object. Ether isn't simply a fundamental substance either. Ether actually makes up the laws of nature as well, being on a higher level. The usual laws of nature are simply like an operating system running on the ley lines and gods can use their Auth Spells and Authority to overwrite that. As such they are, for example, able to create water that doesn't vaporize at 300 °C and that is just a basic task. Phases and molds are so fundamental, that the fact that a human can make a comparision to something else when viewing something is proof of it having a mold or phase. Ether was added to the world when the concepts of different worlds were added to the universe. Of particular relevance was the concept of contradiction allowance, as that turned the world into one in which anything is possible.
• Revelation Board: A useful screen, which a god can manifest at any time. It allows them to communicate each other without using words, look certain things up similar as to how one would on the internet and check on the status of their human partners within certain limits.
• Divine Rank: Every god has a Divine Rank. The Divine Rank roughly equates to the power of a god, although various factors play into that which causes exceptions to exist. Divine Rank weakens the effects of Ether based effects on gods, which are all attacks as Ether composes everything. While Divine Rank can't negate Auth Spells and Authorities, as these can't be negated, it can weaken them to the point of their effect being insignificant. However, Divine Rank only protects the god itself. If a god, for example, can't life in a vacuum, then another god could still kill them by turning their surroundings into that. Some factors that play into divine rank are size of the sovereignty they can control with their authorities, the number of worshipers and their historical rank. If two gods have vastly different divine rank, the stronger god can control the weaker god should a connection between them be established. Such a connection could be created if they as much as engage in conversation with each other.
  • Historical Rank: The historical rank quantifies how old a mythology is. Generally, an older mythology will have an advantage against a newer one, as the newer one usually to some extent is a derivative from the older one. This shows in the form of a temporary increase in Divine Rank for those with the higher Historical Rank and with that an increase in power. Two generations difference has shown to be enough to advance from Country Rank to Region Rank. The generation are as follows. 0th Generation: Mythology created with the Solar System; 1st Generation: Mythology created with the Planet; 2nd Generation: The mythology of all living creatures when the came to be on the planet; 3rd Generation: The first mythologies of humanity (Pangaea Mythology); 4th Generation: Laurasian Mythologies, Gondwanan Mythologies and Out of Africa Mythologies; 5th Generation: The first mythologies with written records, such as 'He who Saw the Deep'; 6th Generation: A lost generation. Humans simplified and specialized the gods; 7th Generation: Norse Mythology etc.; 10th or later: Shinto.
• Combat Barrier: Gods can create combat barriers, which virtualize what is inside of them. The purpose of this barriers is to keep the damage of their battle confined to the area enclosed by them and to make it possible to reset all damage done to the area and fighters after the battle is over. More specifically, it is made so that the damage never happened by reverting the Ether to its prior form.
• Nature Support: Gods get supported by the local gods and spirits embodying the nature around them, provided the nature is alligned to them. As such, Shinto gods or those allied with them would be able to do things like walk on water or have pillars of earth grow from rivers to allow them to pass over without losing their step. Likewise, they might hinder opponents by worsening their footing.
• Blessing: As a god, she can grant divine protection to her believers. These divine protection do not only increase the believers durability, but also allows them to survive hundreds of degrees of heat and in places without or with unbreathable atmosphere.
• Authority & Auth Spells: Gods have specific authorities related to their myth that enables them to do related things, by writing their abilities directly into the Ether. Additionally, they all are able to learn Auth spells, special god-magic which enables them to do a variety of things independent from their myth. A special feature of Authority and Auth Spells are that they can not be negated. This goes to the point that when an Auth Spell is used against an Authority that makes the god immune against that spell, the Concept of Contradiction Allowance is invoked to decide the outcome, as neither the immunity nor the Auth Spell can be negated i.e. have no effect. Said concept handles the like of logical and conceptual contradictions. While Authority and Auth Spells can't be negated, techniques weakening their effects are allowed.
  • Human Detection: Kidou mentioned that she and Bilgamesh have human detection authorities, which would allow them to instantly find Sumaragi in the Divine World.
  • Equipment Summoning & Control: Bilgamesh has various weapons stored away in a pocket space and can eject them at any point to use them. He can eject them with considerable speed, to land a devastating blow right away. He can furthermore wield these weapons without touching them, having them follow his movements while floating around him. He can additionally increase and decrease them in size, which allows him to use things like a 2 km big shield or 600m long gauntlets. The weapons also automatically repair themselves should they be damaged.
  • Buffering: An Auth Spell, which seemingly provides Bilgamesh with stable footing. It also strengthens his attacks and movement.
