About the gods, the reason I based off this as even with no or very few tributes the gods like the Carrigans and the Vanir seem to be at least at the level of a black eye demon in threat level to hunters. Also, it possible that there is a default strength. This strength could be for having tributes and not having tributes like nothing above or nothing below regardless of number or lack of tributes. But the main reason I wanted to compare gods to demons is in Hammer of the Gods. Yes, Lucifer killed several well known deities with little effort like minor telekinetic effort or just using his greater strength. But why not bring demons? It's possible Lucifer knew the gods couldn't harm him, so why bother with demons. Or its possible that they are stronger like the last supernatural salute for season 5 says that on average their stronger than humans, monsters and demons. As to why Lucifer wouldn't want to use them even to distract other gods while he kills them off. It's possible why waste a tool till it's filled it usefulness.

As for Eve. Like I said Idk, but it's possible Eve was just another deity, but maybe she found a way to break into Purgatory and was corrupted into a more monster like god. It's also possible that she mated with other Leviathans to gain the needed aspects to make other monsters as it would fit Edgar's statement that she was a whore and why her creations are linked to Purgatory and not Heaven or Hell as an afterlife.
