Real world basis
Orishas (singular: orisha) are spirits that play a key role in the Yoruba religion of West Africa and several religions that derive from it, such as Cuban, Dominican and Puerto Rican Santería, Brazilian Candomblé, and Haitian Vodou.
They form a large pantheon including:
- Papa Legba: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papa_Legba

- Oshun: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oshun
- Ogun: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogun
- Asojano: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babal%C3%BA-Ay%C3%A9
- Inle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inle_(Santer%C3%ADa)

Incidentally the Orisha Asojano is associated with the Catholic saint Lazurus in Cuban Santería.
