The Messenger of the Gods. Hermes was first a Celani who gambled with the elder goddess Raclawice for Her godhood and won. He encompasses not only the realm She patroned but also that of gamblers and blessed with Luck. In the game of Blackjack, dealers often laud those who score the winning Blackjack as smiled upon by Hermes.
After a long period of absence from the realms during which He travelled many planes, He made His re-appearance during the opening of a casino in Thera. Under the guise of a young mortal named Kalek, He lured the Divine, the Great Mother Herself included, into a game of dice where He won every toss to the disgruntled amazement of both Divine and mortal audience. By the third toss, the crowd had become quite adamant that there was foul play about, but the Great Mother simply laughed and hinted that there was more to the youth who had won more than most would earn in their lifetime. At that the Messenger God revealed Himself, inciting a mixed reaction of amusement and chagrin from the Garden, and utter delight and cheers from mortalkind.
