These gods went on to create various spirits, which were represented as beings and worshipped. These spirits included those of waters, forests, fields, households, illnesses, luck, and ancestors. For example, ''Chelovd''y is an important water spirit, believed to distribute fish to fishermen. He was created by Arkadi, who was regarded as god of the oceans.
