Jas

Jas is the oldest of the Elder Gods, the ancient beings responsible for the creation of the universe, including Gielinor itself. Of the elder gods, she is the most powerful. She is described by a TokHaar-Hok as "...time, and so time passes. She is sand, and so there is desert." It has been said that the Elder Gods do not specifically represent an element or aspect, but Jas is most aligned with progression and time, and also has an association with sand and air. In addition to the roles she played in shaping the universe, Jas is specifically responsible for creating almost all of the Elder Artefacts using the Stone of Jas, the first artifact and the one that "most purely expressed her power," and one that has played a prominent role in Gielinor's history. She also enslaved the Dragonkin, binding them to the Stone, in order to prevent its power from being misused.

The Elder Gods shaped many worlds throughout the universe, each time improving their designs with the assistance of the Elder Artifacts, including the Elder Kiln. After creating Gielinor, meant to be their final and most perfect creation, the Elder Gods "lay down upon their perfect world" and "[spoke] no more [to the TokHaar-Hok]." This suggests that the Elder Gods did not depart from Gielinor after creating it, but instead remain on it. Her Elder chronicle is found on the Ullek cliffs, suggesting that she is either underneath or is the Ullek cliffs.

In Heart of Stone the player visits the Ullek cliffs again, and meets with JasKra, Jas's mouthpiece, whom the adventurer convinces that he/she is not working with Xenia by displaying a series of memories to it proving this point. Also, at the end of this quest, the Prehistoric Abyssal declares that Jas, along with the other Elder Gods on Gielinor (Ful, Bik and Wen), is beginning to wake up.

Trivia

 * In the fifth Postbag from the Hedge, the letter to the Chaos Elemental reads "Chaos Soahc, Jas. Hello?
