Hygieia, Goddess of Hygiene and Cleanliness
Hygieia is the only one of the Gods of Healing to have temples separate from the god Asclepius. Her temples and shrines are always bath houses, and often also manufacture soap or other hygiene products for the local community. Reverence for Hygieia rises in an area in direct proportion to the quality of infrastructure and public health availability.
Hygieia's sect has a problem with members changing to serve Hedone, Goddess Of Bliss, after spending too much time indulging in the baths. This has led to punishing those who are found "fouling" the sacred bathing water by giving them to the Cult of Chiron; the threat has done a fair amount to curb the steady loss of followers.
