Overview
A Sky-Father is a supreme leader of a population of deities. Each a mighty power on his/her own right. Also called All-Fathers. This term can also apply to a level of power that is based mainly on showings by Odin and Zeus. It is unknown to what extent other skyfathers share this level of power. Some pantheons may have rulership divided among several gods resulting in multiple skyfathers.
The skyfathers will often meet or send representatives to attend the Council of Godheads.
