Oghma is the bald headed scholar god.  He is the most knowledgeable of the Danaan deities and it is for him that the Ogham script is named.


Dogma

Knowledge, says Oghma, is the most powerful force of the universe.  His followers are expected to learn as much as they can about as much as they can.  They are to respect bards and support them however they can.  Oghma’s followers are told to keep records of their experiences and to share their knowledge with whoever may seek it.    


Clergy

Many Clerics of Oghma are uncharacteristically literate and often run small schools out of the church building, where they often amass small libraries of books.  They are responsible for the education of the people whenever they can.  Oghma’s clerics wear robes of green and gold.   

Druids of Oghma seek to learn and teach people through the ways of nature.  Their sanctuaries are located in fields of dolmens inscribed with proverbs and lore written in Ogham.  Oghma’s druids traverse the parishes of their diocese looking for children destined to become bards.  Once such a child is found, they are given a draught of honey from a golden chalice and their gift is reported to any bards or Clerics of Cairbre in the area.
