Gods

The gods, are an as-of-yet undepicted group of beings in the Code Geass Universe. Little of their actual nature is known, but it is believed that they are somehow related to immortals like V.V. and C.C. and the nature of Geass. As per the Geass contract between Charles Di Britannia and V.V., Charles has vowed to help destroy the gods, and is using the Sword of Akasha to that end.

According to V.V., the gods are not beings like humanity typically describes them, like a winged woman or bearded old man, but are beings who cause mankind to fight amongst themselves. Originally, references to the gods were considered some sort of metaphor by Britannians such as Cornelia, but that has become less likely as the show progresses.
