Role Play Idea for the Seleucids

[Lysimachos]

I think i can answer the first question (at least before it gets confusing at the end of the empire): by birthright. All kings (with little exception) were descendants of Seleukos or claimed to be so and i think mostly the first born became the next king, although there were sometimes internal conflicts.

The temple description did seem to make it sound like a state-cult had formed around Seleukos, so it'd definately make sense that everyone claimed to be his descendant.
