Personally, I'm inclined to believe that there exists at least the potential for Disciples of every god, at least every god with devotees.
The issue though is that there are so few of them that there's not a distinct enough pattern to tell the difference between a hardcore devotee and a disciple. There probably are just about enough Wind Lords to see a pattern, that they are to devotees what devotees are to initiates, but how many people are going to know more than one Yinkin devotee?
