Aside from the well-known fact that being a champion of Valp or Mort results in goodies, I vaguely recall that being a champion of Cleptia gives Your guy a greater chance of succesfuly disarming his foes with whips of thievery.

I couldn't find any ancient records on being a champion of any other deity (even though I was Mellis' main man once, I didn't notice anything), but has anyone got any info?

Well I assume that a bolt has a given, numeric, amouunt of perwer. (assi in enegri)... unless it's LAERSER SKISKLS POEWN PEWN!

The more Cleptia likes you, the more likely you are to disarm with thievery. I think there is nothing special about being the champion.

The same for Scabies and chameleon whip.

I was Mellis' champion as well, and noticed nothing unusual. It was really easy as well. I just read 4 of his books, and sacrificed 2 golden stones to him xD

If you pray to Loricatus while being his champion you get a adamantine thunder hammer... It's the LIVAN version though

I usually get champed by Loricatus when playing, and I've never gotten anything special from him aside from angels, but I play .50, haha.

That's not a very good champion gift considering CVS has a named zombie with a valpurium hammer. Not sure if it spawns at all though...

Kyle's right; same here - I got champed by Loricatus a couple of times and didn't notice anything extraordinary.

I think he can just about always give You an adamantine thunder hammer, the odds just higher proportionally to his stance to the char.

I like being champed by Loricatus early in the game because he seems to be more likely to repair or improve my weapons and armor. This is before I get high enough INT to SoCM things though.

System would indicate in graphic if person is mounted on horse or not.
Same system also show if person mounted on boar, elephant, polar bear etc.
Or if person mounted on ass.
Ivan find mounting on ass funny.

Is his ability to harden weapons affected by anything to do with your character, or the material it's made out of? Because I find early in the game, even with him being very happy, he can't even harden a nymph hair whip.

He'll only harden the iron chain of materials.

Loricatus once hardened my hammer into adamantium Eeeearly-game. I think it was like the second time I came to Attnam and prayed out of habit just to increase my favor. I don't think I have a screenshot, though. BUT I SWEAR IT'S TRUE!
