Personality- Jor-Done is a god of luck, chance, and change, revered both as a fickle trickster and a bringer of unexpected fortune. He embodies the idea that life is a journey of endless crossroads, each turn decided as much by chance as by will. To follow Jor-Done is to accept that one cannot master fate entirely but can learn to ride its currents with grace, wit, and resilience. Jor-Done also teaches that misfortune is inevitable, but so too is unexpected blessing. His faithful are urged to move forward regardless of setback or victory, treating both as merely stops along the greater journey.

Unlike other some gods who demand rigid obedience or solemn devotion, Jor-Done encourages adaptability, courage in uncertainty, and a willingness to gamble everything when the stakes are highest.

Clergy- Shrines to Jor-Done are found near river crossings, market gates, dueling arenas, and even noble counting houses, often marked by simple carvings of feathers or coins. Many nobles pray to Jor-done, if only to ask to keep his misfortunes away, but few dedicate their lives to him. They see his encouragement of travel and freedom as a threat to the oligarchies ways and the Serf Travel Ban. Still, a few orders do exist such as The Cold Gaurd and the The Vexing. Occasionally. Nobles competing in games of skill or chance, such as duels, political debates, or horse races, will often wear a feather hidden in their clothes as a charm of good luck.

Cultural impact: Many nobles see Jor-Done as the patron of political gambits, daring investments, and sudden upturns of fortune. Even among the rigid hierarchies of the Oligarchy, success is often seen as "proof of Jor-Done’s favor." It is common to offer quick prayers to Jor-Done before political gambits, duels, court appearances, or major business deals. Commoners and travelers likewise offer him prayers before embarking on journeys, starting new ventures, or making dangerous decisions.
