Difference between revisions of "Shrines"

'''Shrines''', usually statues or monuments to certain [[:Category:Gods|dieties]] of [[Achaea]], are found on nearly all [[:Category:Continents|continents]] and [[:Category:Planes|planes]]. [[Offering|Offerings]] of [[gold]] or corpses may be offered at a shrine to increase the [[essence]] pool of the God, which in turn allows [[Divine_Order|order]] members to perform such tasks as worldburning their enemies and healing their order members.  

Shrines may be destroyed by the act of defiling. A vast amount of essence is required to destroy a shrine utterly, but doing so successfully will, in turn, cost the Divine essence. Each Divine is said to have a Master Shrine. It is usually found within the safety of Their temple although Master Shrines cannot be destroyed through normal means.
