Daimon

Daimones are the spirits of Greece. They are general nature spirits as well as great people who have come back in the form of one, particularly those of the Golden Age. So many ancestors have gone by, the identity of many has been forgotten. Local shrines are constructed for them, so they will not wander restlessly, instead conferring protection and good fortune on those giving offerings and veneration. When one is born, there is also a guardian daimon assigned to them to follow them.

Daimons also interpret and transport human things to the gods, and divine things to men: entreaties and sacrifices from below, ordinances and requitals from above.

They very rarely, if ever, show a visible form.
