Skaft (Scion)

Skaft, was a former god of Tools in the Long-lost Atlantean Pantheon.

Overview
Unlike the rest of the Atlantean Gods, who were all immortal from birth, legends of Skaft claim he began life as a mortal man. As a child, while his people were still wandering hunters and gatherers, Skaft noticed his mother cut her hand while using a sharp stone to butcher a hare. To protect her skin from the stone's sharp edges, he fashioned a cunning handle for it, creating the first knife. He went on to create all the tools the Atlantean people would need to settle into cities rather than living nomadically: hammers and fishing spears, boats and nets, and the first ovens and kilns. In a short time, the Atlantean people, aided by his inventions, were well on their way to becoming the advanced nation they would eventually become. Skaft continued to invent not only tools and machines, but the ideas behind all of the great Atlantean sciences: navigation, architecture and making ships. His works were functional and beautiful, defining Atlantean aesthetics for centuries to come. So great was his creativity and his dedication to his people that when he died, the other Gods welcomed him to their side, where he served for eons as the Atlantean God of technology, building, art and creation. Skaft eventually won the love of Heshon, the Goddess of Luck. The two never shared a home for long, however. Skaft preferred the cities and settled areas, while Heshon preferred the wild.
