Please note that due to the recent changes to how gods work, this page is very much a WIP.

Some lesser divinities can also sometimes be encountered in subdungeons.

=== Piety and Altars ===
 +
 +
Piety is the spiritual equivalent of gold.  You start with 0 Piety, and can never have less than 0.  You can never have more than 100 Piety saved up, so any gains beyond this are wasted.
  
===Alpha Summary===
+
The number of altars in a standard dungeon depends on your kingdom.  Initially, no altars will spawn. Occasionally, the player will find a subdungeon with a particular challenge; this challenge, when conquered, will convert the player to the god they just discovered (even if they were already worshipping another one) and allow this god's altars to spawn in any dungeon. Altars will spawn based on the amount of gods you've unlocked. If you have 1-3, one god will spawn. 4-8 two gods will spawn. If you unlock your ninth god, you will have all three altars spawn.
  
Once you find an altar, you may pray at it to learn the different abilities the god offers, and may choose either to worship that god or leave the altar and continue exploring. Once you follow a god, you cannot leave them unless another altar offers the chance to convert from that god.
+
Each altar has a 3x3 square of sparkles centred on it, coloured-coded according to the deity of the altar. You should learn the colours, as these give advance notice of which deity is present.  Each sparkle disappears when stepped on, giving +1 piety (regardless of your current religious status).
  
While following a god, certain actions may change your piety with a god, according to the behaviours they prefer. For example, Taurog, being a magic-hating god of battle, awards piety for killing enemies (and more for killing magic users), but causes you to lose piety if you use a glyph. If you would otherwise lose piety when at 0 piety, very bad things happen. On the other hand, you may pray at your god's altar to spend piety on boons, which vary between gods but are all almost universally good. Additionally, if you find an altar to a co-aligned deity, you may spend piety there to convert to that god, keeping the existing bonuses and penalties exacted upon you by your god. However, no more that one conversion is possible during a game. Choosing (or not choosing) a specific deity in a given game can be the choice that means survival over defeat a lot of the time.
+
If you are currently following a god, you can desecrate the altar of any other god (except for the Pactmaker's altar, which can never be desecrated). Doing so gains 30 piety (-10 for each subsequent desecration) and three indulgences, but you will suffer a punishment from the god whose altar you smashed, and the smashed altar will become unusable.  The punishments vary from irrelevant to disastrous depending on the god and your overall strategy.
  
{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" style="border-collapse: collapse;"
+
The principal way to gain piety is by performing actions your current god approves of.  If however you perform a disapproved action, your god will 'fine' you a certain amount of piety.  If you have indulgences, he/she will take off one of those in preference to fining you in piety, so it's a good idea to time your desecrations so that the indulgences allow you to avoid heavy fines.  If you do not have any indulgences, nor enough piety to pay the fine, you will suffer your god's punishment (the {{c|Paladin}} is exempt from this).

+
 
!Name
+
The Pactmaker uses Piety a little differently from the other gods.  Whenever you perform the action associated with your Pact, the Pactmaker will try to take away the necessary Piety and give you the associated benefit.  If you cannot afford the Piety cost, the Pactmaker won't deduct any piety and won't give you the benefit, but there is no punishment and the Pact remains active.
!Worship Bonuses
+
 
!Rewarded/Repent Actions
+
You must return to your god's altar in order to request boons from them.  On some maps you will need to be careful about getting cut off from the altar.
!Penalized Actions
+
 
!Boons
+
=== Initial worship and conversion ===
|-
+
 
 +
You can only follow one god at a time, and at the start, you are not following any god.  (Note: The Pactmaker cannot be followed, but you can take one of its Pacts regardless of whether or not you are following a god.)
 +
 
 +
If you are not currently following any god, you can start following a god at his/her altar.  Depending on the god, you will receive an initial worship bonus in the form of piety and sometimes a free glyph.
 +
 
 +
If you are already following a god, and you are not a {{c|Paladin}}, you can convert to another god with an intact altar (even a god you previously abandoned).  You need at least 50 piety in the bank to convert, and you lose half of whatever you have when you convert.  Converting does not give any of the initial worship benefits.
 +
 
 +
=== Main Gods ===
 +
 
 +
Gods work much the same way in the beta version, but all the gods that are implemented have their boons and piety actions changed up, making them in some cases just slightly different (e.g. Tikki Tooki) and in others encouraging an almost entirely different playstyle than before (e.g. Mystera Annur). Some boons can even be used more than once, ''usually'' with an increased Piety cost each time; they will be marked "repeatable" on the chart below, usually with a cost of "X + Y*n Piety" (n being the number of times the boon has already been used).

===Beta Summary===
 
  
Gods work much the same way in the beta version, but all the gods that are implemented have their boons and piety actions changed up, making them in some cases just slightly different (e.g. Tikki Tooki) and in others encouraging an almost entirely different playstyle than before (e.g. Mystera Annur). Some boons can even be used more than once, ''usually'' with an increased Piety cost each time; they will be marked Repeat on the chart below, usually with a cost of "X + Y*n Piety" (n being the number of times the boon has already been used).
 
  
In addition, no altars will spawn at the beginning of the game. Occasionally, the player will find a subdungeon with a particular challenge; this challenge, when conquered, will convert the player to the god they just discovered (even if they were already worshipping another one) and allow this god's altars to spawn in any dungeon. Generally, 3 altars will spawn per dungeon (assuming at least 3 gods have been discovered).
+
== Lesser divinities==
 +
Some other divinities can be encountered in subdugeons. You can sometimes interact with them, or even worship them.
  
Two other major changes have occurred to the way altars work. First is Desecration: If worshipping a god, you can smash up another god's altar to gain 25 piety and immunity from the next "major punishment" you would receive; in turn, however, the god whose altar you desecrated will punish you as if you had been a follower but reached 0 piety. Second, you can convert from any god to any other god, at any time, at the cost of half your piety (you must have at least 50 piety to do so). The exception is, naturally, if you destroyed an altar, in which case you can't damn well worship there, can you? Sometimes you can really be quite daft.
+
* The metal spider, in the [[Metal Spider Temple]], who will reward you if you abandon some life.

Revision as of 00:20, 6 October 2014

Gods work similarly to other roguelike games, each giving themed bonuses and penalties.

No class begins with a religion, and must instead find an altar. Each dungeon has up to three altars, each assigned to a randomly selected god. Stepping on the altar will display a brief flavor text description and the option to begin worship if you have not selected one yet.

Some lesser divinities can also sometimes be encountered in subdungeons.

Piety and Altars

Piety is the spiritual equivalent of gold. You start with 0 Piety, and can never have less than 0. You can never have more than 100 Piety saved up, so any gains beyond this are wasted.

The number of altars in a standard dungeon depends on your kingdom. Initially, no altars will spawn. Occasionally, the player will find a subdungeon with a particular challenge; this challenge, when conquered, will convert the player to the god they just discovered (even if they were already worshipping another one) and allow this god's altars to spawn in any dungeon. Altars will spawn based on the amount of gods you've unlocked. If you have 1-3, one god will spawn. 4-8 two gods will spawn. If you unlock your ninth god, you will have all three altars spawn.

Each altar has a 3x3 square of sparkles centred on it, coloured-coded according to the deity of the altar. You should learn the colours, as these give advance notice of which deity is present. Each sparkle disappears when stepped on, giving +1 piety (regardless of your current religious status).

If you are currently following a god, you can desecrate the altar of any other god (except for the Pactmaker's altar, which can never be desecrated). Doing so gains 30 piety (-10 for each subsequent desecration) and three indulgences, but you will suffer a punishment from the god whose altar you smashed, and the smashed altar will become unusable. The punishments vary from irrelevant to disastrous depending on the god and your overall strategy.

The principal way to gain piety is by performing actions your current god approves of. If however you perform a disapproved action, your god will 'fine' you a certain amount of piety. If you have indulgences, he/she will take off one of those in preference to fining you in piety, so it's a good idea to time your desecrations so that the indulgences allow you to avoid heavy fines. If you do not have any indulgences, nor enough piety to pay the fine, you will suffer your god's punishment (the Class: Paladin Paladin is exempt from this).

The Pactmaker uses Piety a little differently from the other gods. Whenever you perform the action associated with your Pact, the Pactmaker will try to take away the necessary Piety and give you the associated benefit. If you cannot afford the Piety cost, the Pactmaker won't deduct any piety and won't give you the benefit, but there is no punishment and the Pact remains active.

You must return to your god's altar in order to request boons from them. On some maps you will need to be careful about getting cut off from the altar.

Initial worship and conversion

You can only follow one god at a time, and at the start, you are not following any god. (Note: The Pactmaker cannot be followed, but you can take one of its Pacts regardless of whether or not you are following a god.)

If you are not currently following any god, you can start following a god at his/her altar. Depending on the god, you will receive an initial worship bonus in the form of piety and sometimes a free glyph.

If you are already following a god, and you are not a Class: Paladin Paladin, you can convert to another god with an intact altar (even a god you previously abandoned). You need at least 50 piety in the bank to convert, and you lose half of whatever you have when you convert. Converting does not give any of the initial worship benefits.

Main Gods

Gods work much the same way in the beta version, but all the gods that are implemented have their boons and piety actions changed up, making them in some cases just slightly different (e.g. Tikki Tooki) and in others encouraging an almost entirely different playstyle than before (e.g. Mystera Annur). Some boons can even be used more than once, usually with an increased Piety cost each time; they will be marked "repeatable" on the chart below, usually with a cost of "X + Y*n Piety" (n being the number of times the boon has already been used).
