Religion:Sors
From HandWiki
In Roman mythology, Sors, a lesser deity, was a god of luck.[1][2] Derived from the Greek model of Tyche,[3] and supposedly a son of Fortuna.[4][5]
Scarcely mentioned in mythology, a handful of quotes cite him in such expressions "By the luck of Sors", or "Lived by a hairs breadth of Sors". Sors is also a popular name in poker, as are both sayings. Sors is also a common term in gambling.{{Citation needed|date=February 2024} ece that mentioned Sors. “Legend says Sors still exists somewhere beyond. Acolytes say he is among gods. Non-believers say he never existed. But it is said he is eternally found.”[citation needed]
