{{spoiler}}
There Gods are a number ancient entities of ways in which the character can interact with Gods. You cannot contact any god unless world-changing powers - and you know the right rituals. You can learn gain access to a god's rituals by visiting the god's altar, or reading the god's [[Books|holy book]]. Praying to [[Mellis]] will sometimes result in Mellis sharing knowledge sliver of a god that their might if you have not yet encountered. Reading the book of (or praying to) a certain God will raise your relation with that god, and with gods of a similar alignment. The increase is proportionate to the similarity; gods that are significantly different will be displeased, so it is best to pick a handful of similarly aligned gods to pray tocan win their favour.
Using a [[Wand]] of polymorph will change a god's alter into a different god's alter; this does not affect your relationship.
'''Praying''' to a god will have a reward if you are in good relation with that god, and will slightly increase your [[wisdom]]. Although each god has a different effect, most will also summon new limbs if you are missing a limb, or possibly summon an [[Angel]] to help you. Praying will have a negative effect if you are not in good standing with that god, or if you pray too often. You may only pray to gods that you know the rituals for. If you receive a position reaction, it will be safe to pray again in three hours. In the event of a negative reaction, the cooldown time is generally at least twice as long.== Worship ==
'''Offering''' sacrifices === Prayers === You cannot contact any god unless you know the right rituals - learn the rituals by visiting an [[altar]] of given deity or by reading his or her [[Books|holy book]]. Praying to [[Mellis]] may also result in Mellis sharing knowledge with you of a god you have not encountered yet. Reading the holy book or praying to a certain god will raise your relation with that god and also shift your [[Alignment]] closer to the god's. Deities of similar alignment will also be slighlty pleased. The increase in favour is proportionate to the alignment similarity: If you pray to [[Atavus]] (L+), [[Legifer]] (also L+) will be pleased nearly as much as Atavus, while [[Valpurus]] (L++) and gods of lawful (L) alignment will be also pleased. [[Sophos]] (L-) would not care (no change in relationship) and gods of greater alignment differences will be increasingly displeased, so it is best to pick a handful of similarly aligned gods to pray to. Note that praying to Valpurus (L++) will make Sophos (L-) slightly angry, as the alignment difference is too large. Praying to any god will have a reward if you have good relationship with that god , and will slightlyincrease your [[wisdom]]. Although each god has a different prayer effect, most will summon new limbs if you are missing one and may summon a [[Pets|pet]] [[Angel]] for you. Praying will have a negative effect if you are not in good standing with the god or if you pray too often - if you receive a position reaction, it should be safe to pray again in three to four hours. In the event of a negative reaction, the cooldown time is generally at least twice as long. Beware that [[Valpurus]] and [[Mortifer]] have different praying mechanics - do not pray to then the first time you learn the right rituals! === Sacrifices === Offering sacrifices at an altar will raise your relationship with that deity. There are certain [[items ]] and [[materials ]] for each god which Gods they prefer, which those will raise your relationship more than others (as noted by the god thanking you for your "generous offer"). === Becoming the Champion === == The Pantheon ==

 == Trivia == * Using a [[Wand]] of [[Polymorph]] on any [[Altar]] will change it into an altar of a different god; this does not affect your relationship with the first deity. [[Category:Gods| ]]
