Podarge
Podarge is primarily the patron of pirates and proscribed in most nations, including those dedicated to the Dagonian gods. His priests have some influence in the Pirate Islands, but the center of Podargan worship is amongst the pirates of Mendar. His worship is most strongly opposed by Thea, the Goddess of Art, whose creations he orders destroyed and Betshaba, Goddess of Water, whose oceans he violates whenever possible.
As Gal’tis, he is depicted as a desiccated orc and consort to Tethys, Goddess of Undeath. In this aspect Podarge is unusual in that he is one of the few deities outside their own recognized by the orcs, who fear him as a creature of the night who comes to turn them into his mindless undead minions.
