-Shan has the power to grant spells to his followers, although (technically, according to the Pathfinder rules) he is a Mythic Spirit, rather than a true deity.   He is a personification of the sea wind, and might be invoked during times of 'contrary' weather.  He has few followers but is often invoked by sailors, fishers, and others who travel on the sea.  His priests are, generally, drawn from those followers who multi-class a one or two divine levels with their previous class.
+Originally a local weather spirit, Shan has developed into a Quasi-deity as worshipper numbers have grown.
