The Great Courses has a series on Comparative Religion.
They also have a series where each course covers a different world religion.
Then another course covers different mythologies (e.g. Norse) from different regions.
The first course would answer all your questions, the rest will fill out your understanding.
See if your local library carries them - mine does.

I more so see such entities (cognitive or otherwise) like the demiurge aka assuming it/they are at the peak yet themselves just at another strata of reality, not yet reaching enlightenment and still trapped in samsara.
