Hadryon

Hadryon is the God of food, drink, adventure, merriment, and loyalty. He is patron over taverns, restaurants, breweries, and merrymakers. His wife is the God Helena. Together they are known as The Tavern and the Inn.

Description
Hadryon is most often depicted as a stout, bearded human male clad in mismatched leather armor, carrying a massive warhammer. He is often shown tapping a keg, or raising a stein in cheers.

Church
The Church of Hadryon is headquartered in The Tavern Cathedral in Fairwater Undercity's Church Quarter. The cathedral is an actual massive marble cathedral which has sunken into the ground. The entire cathedral is at a very slight tilt, which can be disorienting to drunks and newcomers. Inside the cathedral is an operating tavern, open to all. Members of the public who wish to drink there must give a donation to the church.

Hadryon is celebrated in the summer on a day known as Saint Hadryon's Eve. Festivities include a massive day-long feast with plenty of food and drink.

His cleric guard are known as The Hammer of Hadryon and the administrative group in charge of running the tavern are known as The Stein of Hadryon. The holy group of priests in charge of academics and rituals is known and The Heart of Hadryon.

Hadryon's symbols are the hammer and the stein.

The Tavern and the Inn
Collectively, Hadryon and Helena are known as The Tavern and The Inn. Followers of either god hold both of them in high regard and they are typically depicted together as a pair. The Church of Hadryon and the Church of Helena merely disagree on which is the principal of the two gods, and which one's example should be followed primarily.

Relations between the two churches are generally genial, but members of both organizations look down on the other for misinterpreting the teachings of their gods. Followers of Hadryon are called Hadrish while followers of Helena are called Helenite.

Historically, the Hadrish and Helenite sects were unified in a single Church of Tavern and Inn. This single church built a cathedral. Over the centuries, as the cathedral sunk into the marsh, the church began to splinter into two sects. Eventually the sects broke apart, and the Helenite sect built a new cathedral in Upper Fairwater.
