This is a necro I appreciate. The cleric in my campaign has had multiple opportunities to meet with Triegenes (near death experiences, commune spells getting boosted, etc.). The PC has been discouraged that he met a humble guy on a beach instead of the powerful god that was taught by the clergy. At one point, Nico asked, "Who are you?" and got as a response, "I'm just a guy who served the people."
With the support of the other players in the group, the player decided to have his character go apostate as we are heading into adventure 7. He has picked up 1 level of ranger and is ignoring any magical features of his 10 levels of cleric until an indeterminate time in the future. I really appreciated the group coming together on this idea, and we will see which way the character goes. In their last face to face, Triegenes told Nico, "Hey, if you feel too betrayed by me or the clergy to continue following me, that's okay, but find something to believe." We will see how that goes.
