* The Sage of Six Paths from ''{{Naruto}}'' fits this description, as his religion was jutsu, something that all ninja can do; except that he could do it better than anyone else, which is why they worshipped him. Surprisingly, Nagato also has a Religion in which followers pray to him because of his god-like strength and Dōjutsu. It seems as though all people with the Rinnegan are hailed as Physical Gods.
