Tempus

Though Tempus has few direct worshippers, his clergy is of moderate size and often act as the record-keepers of many civilizations. As god of time, it is Tempus’ responsibility to keep the Wheel of Fate spinning for his sister, Paelemona, Goddess of Fate, and the two are closely associated. Tempus is seen by most a cold, impersonal deity and has charged his priests to only record what they see and to avoid participating in or attempting to influence events. Many priests view this as a command to take a vow of silence and have not spoken since they first gained their robes.
