2nd: The impracticality: As written, none of these guys have any god-like qualities. The Seven (Dwarf) Gods, are more of an extended family than a team of titans. There's one responsible adult, one grumpy old man and five children. Which, now that I think about it, resembles the Greek pantheon.
3rd: Luckily, I have just uncovered some old notes for a group of five nature gods. They are:

4th: "Org," that's a stupid name. Regardless, now we have The Seven, The Five and the Twelve Gods. Let's hope they don't become angry gods!
I love the name, Autumn! 🎃
