Amia Deity System
Click me for a helpful, player-made guide!
Taking a Patron Deity
You can bind to a god (or: take a deity as your patron god) if you meet
the alignment requirements. Everybody can bind to a god, and pray to it,
but Clerics get the best mileage out of it. You can bind to a god in
two ways:
a. You search for its idol in the game. Click on it to open a
conversation which allows you to bind to it if you have the right
alignment.
b. You enter the deity's name in the deity field on character creation.
Mind that the deity will fry you if you pray without meeting the
alignment requirements.
I'll use Nicholas the Maniac ( Level 7 CE Cleric, domains Magic and Destruction ) who has bound to Cyric as an example.
NB: You may reconsider your faith until reaching level 10, ie, you may
choose a new deity before you hit level 10. After that, deities can only
be changed with DM assistance (and a bloody good RP reason; deities
don't fancy people swapping them like socks!).
Praying
You can pray to your patron once a RL hour. Non-cleric characters have a
40% chance to gain a personal blessing. Clerics always get a party-wide
blessing (as long as the party members are in the same area). The
aformentioned blessings are based on your alignment. Clerics get an
additional party-wide bonus for their deity domains. Clerics without proper deities and/or domains become fallen.
Druids that follow a god with Animal, Plant, Sun, or Moon domains will act like
Clerics and give an auto-success party -wide alignment blessing. They do
not get any domain blessings (as they obviously don't have a domain).
Druids on Amia are required to follow only druidic deities that offer them spells. On the deity list, it is noted with a "*" before the name to specify which ones are permitted. All other deities will result in being considered fallen, and the druid will be unable to use their abilities.
All other characters add twice their Paladin, Rangers, Blackguards and
Divine Champion levels to the 40% base success rate. A level 30
Paladin would thus get an automatic success.
All divine casters should insure they have a deity from which they get their blessings (spells). In addition to the LG deities for paladin, they can also take Sune, Selune, and Corellon Larethian. Those that have no deity, or one that doesn't match their alignment, will be considered fallen, and will not be able to use their abilities. The only exception to this is Blackguard. Blackguard must be evil, and paladin must be lawful good, or they are considered fallen.
The duration of a prayer is 5 turns + 1 turn / 3 Cleric (or Druid)
levels. This equals 5 minutes + 20 seconds for every Cleric level.
Nicholas' prayer would thus last 7 minutes and 20 seconds.
The prayer is accessed from the Rest menu. This effectively means that you cannot use it in the thick of a fight.
Alignment based blessings
You get a +2 dodge bonus vs the opposite alignment on the Good-Evil
axis. Neutrals get a +1 vs both Good and Evil. A further +1 is added
when you have 10+ Cleric levels.
Nicholas
is Evil and gets +2 vs Good. He'll get +3 vs Good when he reaches his
10th Cleric level. This bonus is given to himself AND party members in
the same area because he is a Cleric.
