Krasymemnos, God of Mirth and Wine

The merry god, the last to be born during the Time of Forging, Krasymemnos is the jubilant god of wine, wine-making, theatre and mirth. Lord of the party, he is known to induce a merry frenzy in all that he encounters; wine pours eternally from bottles, cups rarely empty and good memories are abound in their presence. Krasymemnos represents both the joy found in companionship, and the subverter against those would oppress the freedoms they stand for. Those who follow Krasymemnos tend to be bardic folk, beggars, lovers of life and hedonists. The priesthood of Krasymemnos are known to run, or at least act as patron for, great vineyards.

Krasymemnos is often depicted as a rotund figure, with a great bushy beard and wreath about their head or as a Satyr with a great beard and purple fur.

Holidays

The Day of Ember – 34th of Sedlios
During the day, people share drinks with one another, share stories from their year and generally spend this time keeping an eye on others. It’s known for lovers or partners to write their names on pieces of wood, and then cast them into the flames, so Krasymemnos may learn your names and bless your partnership.
But as the dark time of night draws into that day, members of the community come together in private, dressed in black shrouds and makeup, heading out into the nearest forest or hills to dance the silent Dark Dance, else Winter may not truly arrive.
