You have hexproof. (You can't be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.)
Athreos cares little for the other gods' conflict with mortals. He is concerned only with safe passage for the dead.

Where it came from
Aegis of the Gods was released in 2014 as part of the Journey into Nyx set, the final expansion in the Theros block for Magic: The Gathering. The set was designed to explore the intersection of Greek mythology and the enchantment-focused lore of the plane of Theros. This specific card was crafted to provide players with a creature that grants 'hexproof' to its controller, serving as a tactical defensive tool against spell-heavy opponents in the game's competitive environment.
The card’s illustration was created by artist Eric Deschamps, who captured the ethereal, divine aesthetic synonymous with the Theros block. By depicting a sentinel figure shrouded in mystical, starry light, the design reflects the set's thematic reliance on the gods of Nyx. Upon its release, the card was received as a functional niche addition to white-based deck archetypes, valued primarily for its specific interaction with the game's mechanics rather than for its individual rarity.
