Setting: High Fantasy/D&D-esque
Creator: The one the humans and other deities know as the elder God; created all of th lands and other deities. Made both the God of Marriage and the God of Fertility
Fertility God:
Name: Yuni
Age: appears to be in early 20's, but is immortal
Appearance: Tall and slender; with eyes like a clear blue sky and long shimmery hair the colour of cotton. Has a light brown complexion. Wears flowy robes and hair is adorned with flowers, sometimes woven into it.
Appearance in lore: Basically the exact opposite depiction as he actually looks. Humans have it in their heads that fertility can only be female; he is often depicted as a short woman with wide hips, large breasts, and round stomach.
Symbolism: Lilies are most associated with him
Role: To bless homes with children, along with safe and easy delivery. Sometimes worshipped in more rural areas for land fertility/crop abundance.
Personality: Falls in love easily, easily hurt (emotionally), and is a bit more naive than the rest of the pantheon, due to being one of the last gods created. He's determined and kind, though. Very curious about human/humanoids on the planet.

Yuni, a fair haired, fresh-faced deity made his way to the temple of his future spouse, the God of Marriage. The creator had told him that he was crafted just for this god; to be his love and mutual support. And what the creator didn't say was that Yuni was created to try and wrangle the marriage deity in, in hopes of getting him to settle down. Who ever heard of a deity of marriage and family who couldn't commit?
He was brimming with exited energy; he would get to meet his spouse today. So full of delight was he, that the trees and flowers bloomed in his path wherever he went. He knew so very little of him; only that he was the most attractive man in the whole pantheon. He was so lucky. 'I hope my appearance pleases him,' Yuni thought. Despite making his way into the place of worship disguised as a human devotee, there was an unusual aura about him.
Yuni was ushered inside. And what he found shocked and horrified him. It really shouldn't have, but when he learned that he was to be the spouse of the god of MARRIAGE the last thing he expected to walk into was a harem. His future husband lounged with a circle of devotees (scantily dressed, he noticed) around him. Two sat on either side of him, another sat grinding on his lap... Yuni was horrified.
He let loose a rather undignified shriek at the sight. Which got the attention of his fiance and all his... Attendants.
"Oh, who are you?" He asked, grinning at Yuni. "A new worshipper?"
Yuni frowned. "I most certainly an not! I am your fiance!'
In the silence that followed, you could hear a pin drop. The god regained his composure quickly though, and said. "Oh no. I don't know what scheme that old coot has cooked up this time, but there is no way in being tied down to some deity if .. what's your specialty now, girly?'
"Fertility," Yuni huffed, "and it's "Yuni', not 'girly.'" What a horrid man.
"Absolutely not," the god said, "there is no way in hell I am getting baby trapped by the likes of you. You can just make your way back to the creator and tell him I'm happy as I am."
With a quick snap of his fingers, Yuni was pushed out of the elder god's temple, and back to the mortal world. H plummeted into his oasis with a splash. He dredged himself out of the lily filled water, fuming. What an absolutely horrible man. "I don't want you either!" He shouted, feeling tears prick his eyes. As rude as he was, to be outright rejected before he even got to know him... It was a horrible feeling.
