Aw shoot, so many ongoing projects and none of them fit this prompt. I'll probably submit my entry a bit later on then.
Edit: Then again, if we're not strictly talking about gods...

Obviously, I should just repost Dagonet. Barring that, one does immediately come to mind.

Maybe two...
Do you likejazzshort stories? Do you want something to distract from making Servants? Do you wish the idea of Shirou Kotomine didn't immediately bring edgelords to mind? Well, I can't promise it's good, but some would disagree with me.
Fate/Without Justice

"Servant Voyager, Pandora has answered your call. Now let's get a bite to eat Master, there's no point making introductions on an empty stomach. After that can we go to the nearest hospital to help people? I can feel this era abounds in its fair share of sickness and misery, so I'd like to get to work on repairing it as soon as possible. Hmm, the Grail War? Yes I suppose that's important too..."
Servant Voyager:
Appearance:
True Name: Pandora
Alignment: Neutral Good
Alternate Classes: Caster, Assassin, Avenger
Strength- D
Agility- C+
Endurance- B+
Mana- A
Luck- C
NP- A
"Hmm, you don't think this Class is fitting for me? Well I certainly had a lot of time to wander and clear my thoughts after what I've done."
History
Personality
Class Skills:
Independent Navigation- C
The Voyager Class' variation of Independent Action. A Skill granted to those famed for travelling through distant lands, whether to reach a destination or simply savoring the scenery along the way. Donates the Servant a bonus to Endurance and constant supply of magical energy per turn so long as they continue on their journey. Voyager's journey is not to reach a destination but one of repentance. So long as the evils she unwittingly set free continue to torment humanity she will carry on her thankless march.
"I saw so many beautiful things on my travels through this world, yet I didn't deserve to just bask in the sights. Not when I was the reason for everything bad in it. That's why I had to keep going."
Personal Skills:
Mystery Capturer- B+
A variant of the Skill that indicates one's aptitude in vanquishing mystery. Having dedicated herself to recapturing the calamities she unleashed upon the world Voyager obtains this ability. Rather than slaying mysterious beings, she specializes in weakening them to the point they can be sealed away through her first Noble Phantasm. Plus modifiers are applied to her attacks in proportion to the opponent's level of mystery and in Voyager's case additionally if they can be conceptualized as a "curse".
"How does 'Curse Captor Pandora' sound Master? Hmm, too cheesy? At least consider indulging a maiden's indiscretions."
- EXAll-GiftedAnesidora
All the Olympian gods combined their efforts to aid in Voyager's birth. While it was Hephaestus who crafted her mortal vessel the gods together lent a fragment of their Divine Cores to fill the hollow construct with true life. Wits and speech from Hermes, wisdom of fine crafts from Athena, beauty and desire from Aphrodite, music and song from Apollo and lastly, curiosity from Hera.
Anshowered in graces from every Olympian god, Voyager is close to a divine computer terminal that can access abilities from any of her divine "creators". For instance by "downloading" Ares' memories as war-god into her Saint Graph Voyager can momentarily move and fight as a skilled warrior despite her own lack of experience. Other Skills she could obtain are Mana Burst (Lightning) from Zeus, Protection From Drowning by way of Poseidon and Silver Tongue from Hermes.Homunculusartificial human
Normally only one Authority can be borrowed at once. While Voyager can theoretically combine up to three at a time this would severely strain her Saint Graph and incur significant self-damage. Voyager could theoretically lend some of these gifts to others, reflecting the theory that her original nature was a mother goddess who showered humanity in blessings rather than a pampered princess who hoards them all onto herself. Even so Voyager has forgotten the method to do so and her current mentality of "taking all responsibilities onto myself" would mean she'd rather go it alone on her impossible quest than rally followers.
"How ironic, I was gifted in everything yet the only thing I ended up gifting others was pain. Ah, look at me talking about gloomy things again Master. Well this time will be different. I promise not to let you or anyone down ever again."
Unyielding Will (Hope)- A+
Unaccountable mental strength that sprang from the "" sealed within Pandora's Box. Whenever Voyager is about to lose heart on her endless roam the light of hope shines from within inspiring her to continue. The insane perseverance that drove Voyager to wander the earth alone for untold eons in an attempt to atone for her sin. Even as her ragged feet cried out for rest, even as her name was reviled by the humans she protected, Voyager merely continued to trod ahead.Elpishope
A mental reset that purges bad statuses like fear, doubt and despair. In addition an effect akin to C-ranked Battle Continuation is conveyed as Voyager won't allow her body to give in until her quest is completed. Incidentally, the "hope" Voyager carries is solely for the sake of others. The hope that she could be forgiven and finally lay down the burden of her neverending quest--- Voyager has long since deemed herself unworthy of such a thing.
"You have summoned hope's shadow. As long as I stand behind you the light of hope shall surely shine upon you."
Golden Rule (Body)- A++
Connotes possession of a natural and perfect goddess-like body, preserving beauty. Crafted by Hephaestus himself to be the perfect image of feminine beauty and reinforced by the grace she received from Aphrodite Voyager naturally possesses an unparalleled rank in this Skill. Even eons spent wandering the earth haven't dulled her beauty at all, seeming to have not aged a day since the regret that defined her legend.
"It's not surprising I still look like this, a construct of the gods naturally won't age at the same rate as mortals. Still the appearance of a beautiful girl can be inconvenient while traveling, so I mainly cover this with a cloak. No it's not that I have a complex over having not aged a day, silly Master."
Noble Phantasms
Nice vague prompt this time around. I actually just happened to be working on two Servants that would fit but decided this would be the best entry. Akim Ferreira gave me the idea of a Pandora Servant that's basically a Pokemon trainer traveling the world to recapture the curses she set free and I liked it enough to write out this sheet. Thanks to him for the suggestion and as usual comments and critiques would be welcome. Appreciate the read y'all!

Something something crazy dictators who think of themselves as gods something I remember a great man who created a great Servant like that.
But oh boy I totes thought this would be posted tomorrow. AND WE ALREADY HAVE ENTRIES. I'll read them as soon as possible with lots of love.
Voyager is a fun premise. I guess along her journey she met Master Roshi and learned the Evil Containment Wave?
Minor qualm is that she has no Divinity Skill despite almost being a Terminal. And Hermes does not seem to be a Machine God afaik. I imagine him as a "normal" god, but that is just pedantics.
Nice addition to the Voyager Class, cool entry!

I wonder if anyone is going to do a primordial or head god this prompt.
Hm interesting pronpt , now is the question which of my many candidates and ideas should i use .
Your verified Chikara-production Studios !
Dont ship me with anyone unless i say so !
When you wake a Dragon in his Lair...
Would a mortal who attained godhood or a god who lost his divinity count for this contest.
Funnily enough with all the references I included in the sheet that was one I didn't think of at all. I did consider mentioning her second Personal Skill includes Divinity but somehow didn't find a place to fit that in. It'd be kind of weird IMO if Hermes wasn't a Machine God when all the other Olympians were, but in any case I didn't actually mention that concept in the sheet and just said Olympians (the computer terminology would be a metaphor or literal). Also her second NP is actually a concept I had for an original fiction story I plan on writing sometime.
I have lots of half-formed ideas that would fit this prompt, but Endwalker is releasing so I'll play it safe and stick to some simpler ones.

Well it would be if we didn't know the identities of all Twelve Machine Gods.
The writers essentially deemed Hermes unnecessary for the operation of the Interstellar Fleet, in order to make room for Hades. That's pretty fair in my opinion; what purpose would a messenger unit serve in a fleet of terraforming and colonizing vessels with an interconnected operational network? Now that being kept in mind, the Twelve Machine Gods is more like the twelve most important and vital members of the Fleet after the overthrow of the Titan-generation vessels, it doesn't necessarily preclude Hermes being a lesser vessel who (speaking now in terms of the Lostbelt 5 story) was simply destroyed during one of the Machias without aplomb. Just as much though, he could just be a Divine Spirit created by human belief. We simply don't know, and that's more than enough room for anyone to work in.
For future reference, Fate considers the following to be the Twelve Machine Gods of Olympus (and later, the Twelve Olympians);
Zeus, Aphrodite, Apollo, Ares, Artemis, Athena, Demeter, Hades, Hephaestus, Hera, Hestia, Poseidon.
