A very quick way to handle Geo, at least how I handle him:

1. A companion of Sartar.
2. Saw to Sartar's comfort and lodging needs.
3. Became a hero to Sartar's followers needing lodging and a meal.
4. Became a god for Sartarites in need of lodging.

His "priests" are all innkeepers of Sartarite stock. They are bound to offer hospitality to all Sartarites and turn none away (although they are permitted to allow that hospitality to be according to the Sartarite's ability to pay for it). Likewise, they are bound to offer hospitality to all who are not enemies of Sartarites. This is essentially an extension of the normal Sartarite requirement of hospitality. Furthermore, Geo's "temples" can be theoretically set up anywhere, and in a sense these inns become "little bits of Sartar" for some purposes.

The major mystical ability had by the "priests" of Geo is the ability to impose peaceful behavior upon those within the confines of their inns.
