Of the several types of organizations an adventurer may join, a Divine Order offers a unique opportunity to worship Achaea's Gods. Comprised of adventurers who formally declare their alliegance to a specific diety, joining a God's order is a way of actively pledging support to that diety's unique cause, and is a way of advocating certain religious philosophies and godly will. Each Order consists of ten ranks, each of which is entitled to special privileges. While most Gods have an Order, not all of them do. Shrines are a primary, physical presence of the God and His or Her following, where shrine powers may be evoked and essence may be offered.
