Temple of Rao

  This humble sanctuary is the home of the Patriarch of Rao, Jerome Kazinskaia and the center of Greyhawk's devotions to that god of peace and serenity.

  The temple is the scene of the unusual worship services held in honour of Rao.  Instead of the typical religious harangue, these observances involve long, reasoned discussions among church elders on the virtues of a controversial topic, followed by hours of silence during which the entire congregation meditates upon the issue.  Few individuals remain for the entire ceremony, it runs eight to ten hours, but the chapel is filled all day on Godsday as the faithful arrive, linger for an hour or two and depart.

  This gentle and practical religion remains one of the most popular in the city.

  In addition to the patriarch, the sect claims several other powerful clerics among its clergy in Greyhawk.
