primordials
Original cosmic entities
Primordials are the original or first beings in a mythological or fictional cosmology—entities that existed before gods, titans, or creation itself.
In fantasy games and fiction, primordials often represent raw elemental forces or cosmic powers predating the ordered universe: The primordials were imprisoned when the gods took dominion over the world.
The term suggests beings of immense, primal power beyond conventional divine hierarchies.
