Pay Up Front Disadvantage
A very important decision you can give characters is to have them choose if they want to pay for the entire power in advance, or if they want to pay a little less in advance, but keep paying as they use the power. This occurs for example when choosing between a skill or a condition. A condition is more expensive then a skill with the same power. This is because skills must be maintained monthly. So you pay every month, and together with the cost of training the skill, you will eventually reach a point where it was cheaper to pay for the condition.

Priest skills and conditions
A deity is a godly figure who has command over divine magic. This is a very powerful form of magic. Divine magic works by adjusting the physical laws of the world around people and objects. To power their magic, deities need to collect divine charge from the world. For this purpose, deities need to have mortals representing them on the world, fighting for their cause. These are the priests and the crusaders of this domain.

Command skills
Command skills
The command skills are divided into three groups. Offensive, defensive and formation. Each expertise has its own command skills.
You have an amount of authority slots (with a maximum of 14) equal to the amount of points your character has put into this domain. The amount of authority slots determines the amount of disciplined characters you can have under your command. Non disciplined characters (characters without the "disciplined" skill) take up two of these slots.

Ceremony components
Both priests and crusaders have ceremonies that are the basis of their divine power. Ceremonies are performed by using items called "components". The component items are lost during the ceremony and priests and crusaders usually carry a bunch of these components with them.
Priest ceremonies
Priestly ceremonies are based on serving and enhancing the community. They are also a medium between the community and the divine realms of the deities. All divine ceremonies can in theory be performed on unwilling restrained victems.

Divine Conditions
These conditions are all brought about by interaction with the divine powers wielded by priests, crusaders, divine beings or deities themselves.
The blight condition is attached to an item usually after an blighting ceremony.
