Hello, I have a question that might be a little weird but it involves the way spirits treat people if they've got powers and all.
What if a character has had contact with and/or received his powers from a god, especially a rather high ranking one? In this case, Adachi (as well as two other losers) received his powers directly from Izanami, one of the two creator gods of Japanese myth. And I mean like. She actually touched him physically at some point and did that. One of the powers he also ended up with is his Persona (a physical personification of his own mind/true self/whaaaaaaaaateverrr) which manifests itself as... a corrupt version of the OTHER creator god, Izanami's husband Izanagi. And yet on top of all this, near the very end of the game (this'll only matter if I take him from a canonpoint after that which I'm not sure I will yet) he gets possessed by yet ANOTHER god: Ameno-sagiri. Not a well known god but apparently part of that whole divine pantheon idek.
Basically there are gods all up in his shit.
So I was wondering if spirits/gods can sense this sort of thing? Would they be able to tell his powers came from Izanami herself, that he actually had physical contact with her? If I take him from after his possession would be able to tell that? How would this change their opinion of him? Would they even care? Because without that power from Izanami he'd be a completely normal and useless human (and of course he has ZERO idea any of these gods were involved at all to boot).
