Mastakos
Orlanth’s Charioteer
Mastakos is Orlanth’s charioteer and the god of
Movement. He was kept captive by Magasta in Daliath’s
Well of Wisdom until Orlanth freed him. During the
Storm Age, he travelled across the world with Orlanth
and no place was beyond his seven league stride. He is
a planet that crosses the sky faster than any other and
then leaps across the Dome to resume its journey – never
entering the Underworld. He has never faltered once in
his journey except when evil gods hamstrung him for a
time.
Mastakos’ cult is rare and most of the members are
Acolytes or Runemasters of Orlanth. As such, they wield
considerable power but it is not in Mastakos’ name.
Followers of Mastakos are expected to wander and travel
constantly except when employed as charioteer to a king
or chief. Mastakos is depicted as a blue skinned man
driving a chariot pulled by dragonflies or seahorses. His
temples are rare and usually shrines in temples to Orlanth
though a few rare sites where his footsteps exist are sacred
to him alone. Depending on a site, a given shrine may
provide either Teleportation or Guided Teleportation.

Wind Lords and Storm Voices.
