The closest I could see in the description to him being a mysterious patron would be to get someone like Bilbo out to travel because he is a god of travel and his neutrality has a tendency towards good. Fharlanghn I could see being met on the road while traveling as a more likely role for him from the description.I would much more expect Mordenkainen to be a quest giver or accompanying wizard on a quest in the Greyhawk context, partly from later depictions of the Council of Eight and his political machinations, partly from his actual adventuring.Iuz looks nothing like Sauron (Iuz the old as an old man, or his big fiendish form, versus the burning eye and shadow of Sauron) but they both do the same recognizable role of evil lord corrupting and sponsoring and conquering in the world.</blockquote>
