Sources present Adsullata as a river-goddess of the Continental Celts tied to the River Savus in Noricum. Later transmission from Celtic Gaul is reported in which she appears in Brittany associated with hot springs; within that later tradition she is described as the origin or antecedent of the Anglo‑Celtic sun goddess Sul. The available materials record these associations and claims of genealogical linkage but do not provide a narrative myth or detailed origin myth beyond these attested identifications.
The consulted sources supply no iconographic or corporeal descriptions of Adsullata. No physical appearance, attributes, or standardized imagery are recorded in the provided material.
The sources do not enumerate specific powers, deeds, or behaviors for Adsullata. Her identification with the River Savus and later with thermal springs implies a functional association with particular waters (personification or guardianship of those waters) but any detailed powers or mythic acts are not attested in the supplied texts and are therefore presented only as reasonable inferences rather than documented abilities.
Adraste / Adrasteia
Adraste (also Adrasta, Adrasteia) is a name applied across Greek and later European literary traditions to multiple minor figures: an Oceanid listed as a nurse of the infant Zeus, a Homeric attendant of Helen, and a named dramatic character (jailer/antagonist) in plays and operatic retellings. The sources show the name reused in different roles rather than a single, coherent supernatural ontology.
Adrasteia
Adrasteia is an ancient Anatolian/Greek goddess associated with mountain-mother cults and later identified with the Greek notion of inescapable fate and retributive necessity. She appears in Phrygian contexts as a mountain goddess connected to Cybele, in Cretan myth as a nurse of the infant Zeus, and by the fifth century BC is often equated or associated with Nemesis and other personifications of necessity.
Adrastus
Adrastus (Ancient Greek: Ἄδραστος or Ἄδρηστος) is a legendary king of Argos in the Greek mythic-historical tradition, best known as the leader of the expedition of the Seven against Thebes and as a figure tied to oracular counsel, dynastic marriages, and local hero cults.
Adrastus of Argos
Adrastus is a legendary mortal king in the Greek Theban cycle, traditionally king of Argos (with variant traditions placing him first at Sicyon). He is best known as the ruler who housed the exiled Polynices and organised the expedition known as the Seven against Thebes, acting as a dynastic and military patron whose choices precipitate tragic loss.
Adrestia (Adrasteia)
Adrasteia (also Adrestia and multiple orthographic variants) is a figure in classical Greek tradition whose roles shift from a Phrygian mountain/mother-goddess probably associated with Cybele, to a Cretan nymph entrusted with nursing the infant Zeus, and by the fifth century BC identified with Nemesis as a deity/personification of divine retribution and balance.
Adriel the Meholathite
A named human figure in the Hebrew Bible (2 Samuel), identified as Adriel son of Barzillai the Meholathite and cited in genealogical and narrative material connected to events in the reign of David. He appears as a social/lineage marker in the account concerning the Gibeonites and the execution and burial of members of Saul's house.
Adur Burzen-Mihr
Adur Burzen-Mihr is a consecrated Atash Behram — one of the three Great Fires of late antique Sasanian Zoroastrianism — historically associated with the farmer social estate and with a cultic location in northeastern Iran. Medieval texts (e.g., the Bundahishn) and later summaries record it as a major pilgrimage fire with legendary associations of protection and miraculous efficacy; its documentary history after the early Islamic period is unclear.
Adur Farnbag
Adur Farnbag is one of the three Great or Royal fires in the Zoroastrian ritual/topographical system of pre‑Islamic Iran. Presented in the sources as a continuously tended sacred fire housed in a temple, it is attested in secondary accounts as a focus of cultic activity, miracle stories, and association with elite ritual geography in the Parthian–Sasanian eras.
Adur Gushnasp
Adur Gushnasp (Middle Persian: Ādur ī Gušnasp; New Persian: Āzargušnasp) is a pre-Islamic Zoroastrian Great Fire — one of the three highest grade sacred temple fires (Atash Behram) of Sasanian-era Iran. Housed at the temple-site historically called Shiz (modern Takht-e Soleymān, Adurbadagan), it functioned as a continuously tended cultic fire, a pilgrimage destination, and a focal point of royal patronage and warrior-class identity.
Adze
A vampiric firefly of the Ewe people of West Africa — a spirit that takes the form of a firefly by night and a malicious possessing being by day, drinking the blood of sleeping children and spreading disease.
Adze (Folklore)
Vampiric being in Ewe folklore, transforming into human shape upon capture. (Note: 1. Power tier should be Greater, as "deity-level" powers are implied by the ability to possess humans. 2. Add sensory cues (e.g., glowing lights) based on its firefly form. 3. Add weaknesses and wards)
Adže / Adze
No folkloric entity named 'Adže' is documented in the provided sources. The string appears in heterogeneous, non-folkloric contexts (a Bosnian village name, an English woodworking tool entry, a performer pen name, a CIA document fragment) and one modern podcast episode list that mentions 'the Adze' among other vampire-like beings; none of these supply an ethnographic description of a supernatural being called 'Adže'.
