Existing Overlapping Domains: The Drawned, Flowers, Herb Lore, Oceans, Plants, Poisonous Plants, Rivers, Water, Waterfalls

Relevance: Aquatic plants are found all over the world including Africa. SoAs can interact with the plants when they are near lakes, rivers or the ocean.

Domain: Spoils
Existing Overlapping Domains: Perhaps domains like Crafting, Conquest, Greed, Trade, Victory, War, and Warriors would be sort of overlapping? Or related in some way? I see Treasure is a currently quested God, so that would be overlapping as well.
Definition: Spoils - goods stolen or taken forcibly from a person or place
Relevance: There are many prides and even individuals that focus on gathering up the visible proof of their victories. Whether it's gems, teeth, bones, pelts, precious metals, sea shells, or the rare man-made item like fabric, everyone's definition of what they consider a trophy can change, but the act of getting that trinket by some means of force doesn't. A head-to-head competition, a sneak attack, or even slipping into someone's land and stealing all qualify to gain spoils. These are treasures won by someone's prowess and, while it's not always a good connotation, you can't deny seeing someone walk by decorated in visual proof of their accomplishments is impressive.

Approve Me!
Domain: The Hidden
Existing Overlapping Domains: Secrets, Illusions, Sight
Definition: To put or keep out of sight or away from notice
Relevance: Hiding can be key to survival in the land of SoA

Approve Me!
Domain: Honor
Existing Overlapping Domains: Chivalry, Pride, Virtue, Courage
Definition: Honesty, fairness, dignity, or integrity in one's beliefs and actions
Relevance: Honor is a respectable quality for SoA to have, especially in prides or packs  

[Epine de Rose]

Approve Me!
Domain: Graveyards
Existing Overlapping Domains:
Closest:
Death Rites - I honestly don't know what the whole theme around this God is, there's no details. It would certainly be done in a graveyard though, or before the entity is laid to rest..?
Sacred Grounds - Not sure what this god encompasses fully either! But Graveyards are certainly considered sacred to some.

Overlapping/Related:
Decay, Despair, Ghosts, The Lost, The Occult, Rememberance, The Undead
None of these are really the concept I have in mind, but they're definitely related to Graveyards depending on the individual.

Definition:
Graveyards - A place where individuals are often laid to rest following their passing.

Relevance:
There are many prides throughout SoA that experience war, and others who simply lay their dead to rest following tragedy. Whether they are afflicted by disease, pass away of old age, or die a hero in battle... Most are granted a grave.

To some, these regions are places of despair and sadness, to others they're a symbol of hope and tranquility. No matter how you regard these places, they generally invoke some kind of reaction as well as tales of phantoms and other supernatural forces. Some even claim that a presence always exists within, though whether it's malevolent or not is generally down to perception.

However, Graveyards as a god doesn't represent any feelings, he literally represents a place.

Approve Me!
Domain: Animosity
Existing Overlapping Domains: Hate
Definition: a feeling or spirit of hostility and resentment
Relevance: The turmoil of a family torn apart over differing views in belief.  

[mouselet]

Approve Me!
Domain: Lunatics
Existing Overlapping Domains: Identity (overlapping), Insanity* (parent), the Mind (overlapping), Misfits (overlapping), Psychopathy (parent)

*Similar overlapping domains include Guards/Protection and The Hunt/Predators - in each case there is a general domain and then a specific, separate domain for those individuals to whom it applies.
Definition: An individual who is not considered sane, mentally healthy, or otherwise capable of reasoning in the way others expect them to.
Relevance: Even without the influence of the Goddess of Insanity, there are creatures who are just plain nuts. It's only reasonable that they too would have a god who is devoted to them as individuals, instead of their affliction in general. Again, see above with domains like Guards & Protection, Predators & The Hunt, and Rogues & Wanderlust.

Approve Me!
Domain: Duality
Existing Overlapping Domains: Balance, Choices, Conscience, Mirrors?
Definition: The state or quality of being two or in two parts.
Relevance: Some lions are dual-natured, of their own design or without their knowledge, and it is these lions Duality looks over. Unlike Balance, which is more for an equal playing field, Duality only guarantees a difference or a split, but not necessary one that would have one side countering the other.  

[Das Tor]

Approve Me!
Domain: the Dawn
Existing Overlapping Domains: Day, Horizons, Beginnings, Light, The Sun, Night?, Darkness?, Balance?
Definition: The period of twilight before sunrise, it is recognized by the presence of weak sunlight, while the Sun itself is still below the horizon.
Relevance: Every SoA has seen the dawn at least once in their lifetime!  

[In Good Faith]

Approve Me!
Domain: Claws
Existing Overlapping Domains: Bones (and if you want to stretch it a little, Battle, Hunting ("the hunt"), Warrior(s), etc. but I interpret it more literal)
Definition: This domain is specific to claws which SoA grow in order to protect, hunt, and battle.
Relevance: As mentioned above, nearly all SoA utilize this natural-born tool to maintain their existence, in every day lives.  

[Puhterodactyl]

Approve Me!
Domain: Cremation
Existing Overlapping Domains: Ashes (I own- it's his sister), Death Rites (idk anything abt the SoA god tho), Decay (sort of, deals w what happens to the body after death)
Definition: The combustion of deceased into ashes (usually as a funeral or post-funeral rite). An alternative to burial.
Relevance: Ceremonially or when wildfires break out, SoA may deliberately use or simply know of cremation. Can be very spiritual or cathartic. We all need ways to deal with our deceased somehow.
Also it doesn't physically affect living SoA, so it can't be too dangerous.

Domain: Entropy
Existing Overlapping Domains:
Sibling/Overlapping - Decay
I believe "Decay" in SoA is the literal decay of corpses/plant life etc. Not the same as Entropy is, but they both represent degradation. Decay represents it the biological process, Entropy represents the measurement of the degradation of matter and energy.

Parent - Change
He is the 'measurement' of a form of universal and ever present change.

Parent - Time
He is the 'measurement', therefore related to time in a sense.


Definition:
The degradation of matter and energy in the universe to a state of inert conformity.

It is a measurement, not a catalyst/cause.

Relevance:
Regardless of which species a SoA might be, there are those who aspire towards order, and those who aspire towards chaos. Both vy for power and this is how their world has always worked. It is a battle that might seem sustainable at a glimpse, but on a larger stage it plays a critical role in the grand play that leads to the inevitable; there are those creatures in the world that recognise this and how trivial such power struggles therefore are...

Creatures die, landscapes shift, memories fade. The only thing that is a certainty is that nothing lasts forever...there is one universal inevitability that must always be observed.

This silent, enigmatic being seeks only to observe that which is inevitable - that all things must return to their source eventually.

Domain: Pheromones
Existing Overlapping Domains: Negative Emotions, Love, Hate, Animals, Ambition, Choices [slightly?], Conflict, Connections, Deception, Distractions, Flowers [maybe?], Hypnosis, Instinct, Temptation, I think that's it?
Definition: Pheromone is "a chemical substance produced and released into the environment by an animal, especially a mammal or an insect, affecting the behavior or physiology of others of its species."
Relevance: Attraction to another of your own species could be as simple as being drawn to a certain scent that you may not even be aware exists, and that would be pheromones.  

[Wylde Roses]

Approve Me!
Domain: Moths
Existing Overlapping Domains: Butterflies
Definition: A moth is 'a chiefly nocturnal insect related to the butterflies. It lacks the clubbed antennae of butterflies and typically has a stout body, drab coloration, and wings that fold flat when resting.'
Relevance: Moths are everywhere, and in fact some of the most beautiful and unique moths are in africa (or alternately, madagascar). There's no real reason to think they wouldn't be a deity linked to the little fuzzy flyers.  

[Whoan]

Approve Me!
Domain: Giants
Existing Overlapping Domains:
Strength possibly..?
Maybe Epic Feats...?
Definition: Physical size, larger than life SoA
Relevance: There could easily be larger SoA that would fall under the domain. I think the idea behind the domain fits the world setting.
