Hera religion

Religion Hera

• Paths: Freedom

Hera -- goddess of hatred and curses, blinding mortals with rage and poisoning them with jealousy and envy. Legend holds that Hera was not always this way, but the endless string of her husband Zeus's adulteries poisoned her soul with jealousy and malice. One of Hera's most terrible creations is her frenzied son Ares, god of war and bloodshed. Mortals and other gods return Hera's hatred in kind; followers of her cult are rare, and temples of Hera -- heraions -- are nearly gone across the breadth of Thera.

• Paths: Freedom
• Gifts: Hera's mark teaches you improved maladiction and makes all your curses land harder. In battle it hurls curses at your enemies, often two at once, at the start of a fight and now and then after: curse, slow, blindness or plague. Hera's spite never leaves you: it steadies your aim and shields you from magic
• Restrictions: non-good only
• Sacrifices: Hera prefers magical items with curse-group spells. Of drinks, she likes wines best.

One of the last heraions has survived at the site of the cult's origin on Mount Olympus.
