God 101

Foreword: This guide is meant as a summary of the world-building in “Noragami” concerning gods, and a supplement to our FAQ. I hope that it will be helpful to players who want to be true to the setting, and in turn make the gameplay more enjoyable by understanding and applying the mechanics.

In order to give some context, in this guide I use the gods in canon, such as protagonist Yato and his rival Bishamon, as examples. Therefore, there are some mild, out-of-context spoilers.
I have also supplemented this with some links to pages from the manga, shown with *. While it gives the example in more detail, it also has the potential to be much more spoiler-y. I have tried to avoid anything too big or far into the story. (Please pardon the links to fan-translations. The official ones are generally much better with some of the terminology. Please support the official releases!)

Information supplemented from the FAQ is shown with °.
Information specific to the game is in bold, and in the section at the end.


Gods are born from the wishes of humans. So long as humans remember them, they will exist.
