Damage? What damage? The cultures who refused to join the Empire of the Middle Sea are just crybabies, whining because they had no input into how the world was being improved. Sure, there were undoubtedly mistakes and failed experiments, but the information we have about the God Learners all comes from their enemies. Who did such a good job of destroying the God Learners that we have no way of learning the truth. I think it's quite possible that the God Learners were good guys who were destroyed by jealous enemies and outmoded gods fighting for their lives. The God Learners were bad for gods, but who says gods are really good for people? Argrath got rid of 'em, after all... [I don't believe this is true, but I do believe it makes sense.]
Interesting campaign ideas, BTW, too bad you're not in the Seattle area...

Yu-kargzant (and whatever name the Pentans worship the Sun under) are better candidates for mobile temples, because they have more worshippers.

I suspect you could belong only to Mastakos, but in Sartar, the only place you could worship would be at the shrine found in Orlanth temples. (Or that Motion Stone...)

Ah, I vaguely remember that now. You'd think though that some would have ended up in Dragon Pass.
