Worship

This is a big step in your life. Unlike the whimsical religions of other worlds, the choosing of a God or Goddess for devotion becomes permanent. The reason for this is that the gods take an active role once they have you within their flock and they will not release your soul once they have it. There are many perks and negatives to worshipping a god on Avatar. You will have to research, ask around, or take a guess as to whether or not a religion is something you really wish to do. Some Gods, like Bhyss, have only a few benefits (although attractive to some) and many small negatives. The addition of religion to your life, however, will create a more unique experience for you. The choice is yours.

Here's Sheba's take on worship, per her website.

*Enchanting is only affected because of presences. Good god presences turn a shimmer into a brill. Bad god presences turn a brill into a shimmer
**With gods that worsen pracs gained per level, you lose the equivalent of one lowmort prac. Hero pracs/level gains are equal to lowmort gains doubled and rounded down.
