<li>Tend to lean on having multiple more modest temples rather than one large. Several independent temples might even be neighbors. The few grander temples have all been commisioned by others and essentially handed to the Greenwardens (i.e. nobles creating grand temples for each of the deities in their city for example.)</li>
<li>Temples tend to have large gardens, areas for each Greenwarden and their apprentices, as well as areas for communal use, which they cooperate on tending to and operate.</li>

<p>Joybringer temples are expansive and ornate, standing out prominently within the cityscape. They are usually situated in the bustling, affluent areas of settlements to facilitate easy engagement with the local populace. The considerable size of these temples accommodates a variety of functions: residential quarters, administrative offices, spaces for artistic practices and services, potentially expansive bathhouse complexes, and areas designated for religious rites and ceremonies. The scope and variety of these services can differ significantly from one temple to another.</p>
<p>The architecture of Joybringer temples is designed to inspire awe and beauty. Every surface is meticulously crafted to be visually stunning, with walls that are intricately adorned and often painted to complement the art displayed throughout the premises. The furniture is both lavish and luxurious, ensuring utmost comfort. Rooms and corridors are thematically designed, each aiming to evoke specific feelings of awe and joy in those who enter. Reflective surfaces, such as mirrors, are frequently incorporated into the design, aligning with the belief that Lady Firehair communicates through altered reflections.</p>
<p>All temples feature dedicated ritual and ceremonial areas equipped with large mirrors and shallow indoor pools, illuminated by natural light from above or by candlelight. During ceremonies, Joybringers dance barefoot in these pools, singing prayers and observing their reflections in both the mirrors and water. According to their beliefs, Lady Firehair may alter these reflections to provide guidance, creating independent movements and visions in the water that the Joybringers interpret. For larger gatherings, the temple’s bathhouses are also used to accommodate these sacred rites.</p>
<h2>Relations with other Factions</h2>
<p>Greenwardens too fractured to have any real influence. Connection people have with the Greenwardens tend to be more on an individual level. Specific Greenwardens may be very well liked in a community, mostly with farmers, lower cast people, and those who have needed their aid. However, since each Greenwarden basically only has the authority of themselves, plus whoever likes them enough to support their stance, they tend to have very little impact on Marcandrian politics etc. The very nature of how the Greenwardens operate is counterproductive to gaining influence in society.</p>
