Pothos

Pothos, the so-called “Lord of the Die”, is the patron of gamblers, prostitutes, hallucinogenics and general hedonism. He encourages his worshipers to enjoy themselves to the fullest, regardless of the consequences. Active worship is proscribed in most areas, but secretly many at least call upon Pothos when enjoying themselves. Pothos is typically depicted as a grossly overweight man with a beautiful woman at his feet, a hooka in his right hand and a hock of ham in his left.

Pothos’s gravest enemy is his own brother, Ruminus, God of Disease. Their enmity began when Pothos entreated his brother to drink with him, but the God of Disease refused. Eventually, Ruminus created a whole class of diseases specifically designed to harm those who enjoyed Potho’s sins.
