I used Atlas for my Stars Denzien, the world-on-his-shoulders being the best I could find for "gravity". It's a very odd fit but I couldn't find anything better at the time.

Oh, that's a good one o:

Added!

[genesisArtificer]

Thalassa or Neptun for Might, Set for Sand, Morrigan for Fate, Moros or Thanatos for Doom

Also I do believe that there are more that one Denizen for an Aspect. At least there are two (one for gender), but there are probably more.
My headcanons are that:
female Breath: Ishtar
male Light: Leviathan
female Time: Ananke (can switch with Kali)
male Space: Xaos (EDIT: HOW COULD I FORGET): female Space: Heqet, Egyptian FROG godess!
female Rage: Durga
female Hope: Elpis
female Doom: Kali (can switch with Ananke)(I would say that male Doom is Shiva)
male Life: Dionysus (Aether?)
male Void: Erebus (Bythos?)
male Mind: Logos (?)
female Heart: Aphrodite, (Sophia?)
Rain: Samael (if we are doing a dip in Gnostics), Hera (?)
Mist: Ennoia (cause it would compliment Voids Bythos)
Stars: Cassiopeia, Helel (thats right: Lucifer, sue me)
Rhyme: Sedna (female, sea godess of Inuit lore) or Morana (female, death and winter godess of Slavic lore)
Flow: Apollo, Swarog (sun god of Slavic mythology), Hestia, Pele (volcano godess of Hawaii lore)
Dream: Oneiros, Maya (godess of Illusion from Indian lore)

Ok I am done for a while with this Mythology fest (for a while, said mythology nerd)

[chaoticVoyager]

I have added all of those and prettied the list.

[lucidChthonia]

Reference has been made to Tezcatlipoca being a Mist denizen.

[genesisArtificer]

Ok, Helel, Oneiros and Samael are male, Ennoia, Hera and Cassiopeia are female. I will try to make references once I get time.

[whiteLimestone]

I've referenced Ereshkigal (Mesopotamian goddess of the underworld) for Void, Antevorta (Ancient Roman goddess of the future) for Time, and Ankou (Breton personification of death) for Doom. I also saw Medusa in one of my roleplays (and mentioned in a player story by cU), but I can't remember which Aspect we had her for. Light, maybe?

Also, we totally need to make Loki a Sand denizen. I mean, shapeshifting trickster god. It has to be done. Maybe Jormungandr for Might because a massive serpent that circles the world's oceans seems perfect for it, going by Might's connection to water.

[tungstenTinkerer]

Possibly Fenrir for Rhyme then? And Sleipnir for Rain (since he rides on the bifrost rainbow bridge lol).

It is my headcanon that some denizens may have more than one aspect? Like, Raijin being assigned equally often to Mind and Rain or something.

[benignnetherworld]

Bn here has Aphrodite as her denizen, maybe she is interchangable between heart and blood. And another character I play had a rage player with Juno as their denizen.

[genesisArtificer]

Well I also think that Haephestus can be Flow Denizen as well. And Cetus can be a Denizen of Might or Rain.

[jadedJester]

I think Wodan (Or Odin, if you prefer that spelling) could be used for mind.

I've already mentioned Fenrir as ED's current Denizen.

My headcannon has there being a whole bunch of different Denizens and they don't always conform to an Aspect. Like Fenrir could show up as the Denizen for any Bane.

[chaoticVoyager]

Maybe make a list for Titles too?

(PS, I'm supposed to be working, I'll update the list later)

This works very well, and I would agree that Haephestus is Knight Denizen, and not really Time Denizen. Cause, what is blacksmiths deal with Time? He makes weapons, not timekeepers 8\
