Deva can do everything Ashura and Angelii do; but there are far, far fewer of them, hence why they can't just do everything themselves. Deva also feel the threads of possibility constantly - they can see relationships between people as gossamer threads between them; can feel resonances and ways that an individual is connected to the rest of the universe in ways mortals cannot begin to understand.
A Deva is capable of diving into Chaos and finding possible worlds, or taking fragments of many possible worlds and weaving them into something new. Deva are master Benders, the very best, and always more powerful than Ashura… however, a collection of many wills against one can defeat them, and some Deva are only as strong as an Ashura. As Deva are very connected to thoughts, ideas, and the ebb and flow of reality, they are much more strongly affected by thoughts, feelings, and wills, particularly since a Deva is essentially a creature of pure will.
Making entire worlds takes considerable time and effort on the part of a Deva, and a Deva often needs help from fellow Deva and from its Ashura in order to be able to make a truly complete world. Some worlds are very simple or deliberately chaotic (i.e. Spongebob's world was probably only one Deva and its Ashura); others are huge, sprawling, collaborative efforts by many Deva and include many splinter or mirror worlds as new Deva decide they want to try a new twist on an old idea - the Transformers multiverse is an example of this.
