| 2284 | Velnias ENT_BALT_VELNIAS | opposed_by | Perkūnas ENT_BALT_PERKUNAS | high | Velnias is the chthonic antagonist of Perkūnas in the cosmic battle myth; he flees into the earth, trees, and water to escape Perkūnas's lightning. Greimas (1992) pp. 121-150. | Algirdas Julien Greimas, Of Gods and Men: Studies in Lithuanian Mythology (Indiana University Press, Bloomington, 1992; trans.

| 2296 | Veles ENT_SLAV_VELES | opposed_by | Perun ENT_SLAV_PERUN | high | Veles is the chthonic antagonist of Perun in the cosmic myth; hides in the earth, cattle, and trees to escape Perun's lightning.

| 2313 | Kemosh ENT_MOA_KEMOSH | opposed_by | Yahweh ENT_ISR_YAHWEH | high | The Hebrew Bible consistently frames Kemosh as the principal divine opponent of Yahweh in the Transjordanian context. Judges 11:24 (Jephthah) presents the theological schema explicitly. Jeremiah 48 announces Kemosh's defeat and exile as Yahweh's judgment on Moab. The opposition is not ontological (Kemosh is not a chaos monster) but geopolitical-theological: competing national divine claims. Mesha Stele is the Moabite mirror image of the same claim structure. Cross (1973) pp. 228-229. | The Hebrew Bible / Tanakh (primary text; Masoretic Text tradition; reference editions: Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia / Biblia Hebraica Quinta; citations by book, chapter, and verse) SRC_HEBREW_BIBLE | reviewed | Iron Age Transjordanian PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE |
| 2314 | Milkom ENT_AMM_MILKOM | opposed_by | Yahweh ENT_ISR_YAHWEH | high | Milkom is framed in prophetic literature (Jeremiah 49, Zephaniah 1) as a divine patron whose claims over Ammonite territory oppose Yahweh's claims for Israel. The Deuteronomistic condemnation of Solomon's Milkom cult (1 Kings 11:5,33; 2 Kings 23:13) reflects the same theological polemic. DDD Bible "Milcom." | The Hebrew Bible / Tanakh (primary text; Masoretic Text tradition; reference editions: Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia / Biblia Hebraica Quinta; citations by book, chapter, and verse) SRC_HEBREW_BIBLE | reviewed | Iron Age Transjordanian PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE |

| 6387 | Krampus ENT_VF_KRAMPUS | opposed_by | Nicholas ENT_SAINT_NICHOLAS | medium | St. Nicholas rewards good children while restraining/pairing with Krampus who punishes the bad — a protector-vs-menace dyad in the living custom. | Al Ridenour, The Krampus and the Old, Dark Christmas (2016) SRC_RIDENOUR_KRAMPUS | reviewed | |

| 7054 | Evagrius Ponticus ENT_DESERT_EVAGRIUS | opposed_by | John Cassian ENT_DESERT_CASSIAN | low | Cassian transmitted Evagrian doctrine but tacitly distanced it from the Evagrian-Origenist speculation later condemned; a guarded reception rather than full endorsement. | The Sayings of the Desert Fathers: The Alphabetical Collection (Apophthegmata Patrum), trans. Benedicta Ward, Cistercian Publications, rev. ed. 1984 SRC_WARD_SAYINGS | reviewed | |
| 7132 | Arius ENT_HERX_ARIUS | opposed_by | Athanasius of Alexandria ENT_ORTH_ATHANASIUS | high | Athanasius of Alexandria was the chief patristic opponent of Arius and Arianism after Nicaea. | Jaroslav Pelikan, The Christian Tradition: A History of the Development of Doctrine (Univ. of Chicago Press, 1971-1989) SRC_PELIKAN_CT | reviewed | |
