The Greek assembly of gods is probably more familiar to most readers than others of the groups in this work,
because they were woven into a literature that has lasted down through the ages.
Many of our civil concepts can be traced from the assumed actions of the gods and their mates.

Many of the gods of Greece descended from the greater titans,
who were elder beings before the time of mortals and therefore did not need worshipers to make them strong.
The worship by man gave power to the sons and daughters of the titans of a type that was not known to their elders.
This enabled them to throw down the titans and gain mastery of the PMP.

Because of their need for human worship,
the Greek gods show all the traits of the mortals they claim to be so high above.
The gods are highly jealous,
envious,
petty,
and {fly} into blind rages in an instant.

The 1st places of worship for the Greek gods were areas of natural beauty:
a bubbling spring,
a grove of oak trees,
and the like.
As large city states were created,
large elaborate temples were built to honor the gods.
If clerics of this pantheon live in a city,
they must build or work in temples within the city.
If these clerics live in the country or sparsely populated areas,
they must sfind a natural setting for the worship of their deity.

Only clerics worshiping Poseidon may ride horses;
all others must walk or ride in wagons or chariots.
No cleric may have dealings with the clerics of other sectsfor any reason (on non-hostile terms) as this is considered a minor transgression by their deity and punishable by the stripping away of the third and higher level spells for a lunar month.

All clerics must permanently attach themselves to one temple,
and this temple is the only place where they will be able to commune and where they must be drawn back to in their word of recall spell.
While they may travel from this temple (or gladed AREA if they have chosen a more natural setting) they can only receive their 6th and seventh level spells from meditation in that AREA.
In that natural AREA or that temple gets sacked or despoiled in any way the cleric loses his or her higher level spell abilities until the AREA is reconsecrated. <cf. UA>

So I had to do a different approach.
The Argonautica is fun to read and watch on screen, but the way I was writing it as a novel, it would be hated by the community that would buy it.

I had to reduce the story of Jason and the Argonauts to a Timeline for the DM's reference, and then describe each area as an area of adventure.
The other way I was doing it, I might as well be writing a novel. <frown>

Understood!

Now and then I wax eloquent, and then realize how boring it is to me to read aloud all the story I have put into the adventure, even as the players grow restless wanting to game, not listen to me reading.

Ah well,
Gary
