Yahvo, or "The Maker", was worshiped by the D'ni as the creator of all the possible Ages on the Great Tree of Possibilities, and who granted the ability to link to these Ages to the Ronay, from whom the D'ni were descended. Similar to the Judeo-Christian-Muslim god, Yahvo was believed to be omnipotent, having created all of the possibilities of life throughout time. However, while technically omniscient, the D'ni also believed that Yahvo chose not to observe the paths his followers took, so that they might choose for themselves. Yahvo was not a disinterested god, however; he often gave commandments and direction, often in the form of prophesy.
