== Losing priesthood == You can remove your priesthood by going unfaithful, and doing actions your god does not like. When you go below 30 faith, you will lose your priesthood, and your faith will be set down to 20. You may also convert to another god and your faith will go down to 1 and you will lose priesthood. == Losing Premium ==Upon losing premium your favor is capped at 20 but your faith stays at last premium level. Faith gain beyond 30 is not possible for free accounts. == Preparing to Become a Priest ==  === Basic or Premium? === It is by far the best option to start your No priest as a premium character from the outset, the reason being that all your characteristics will then be rising the whole time you are raising your Faith. A follower can become a priest regardless of premium time, the reasoning behind is for players to try out priesthood or experience a little of the enchanting. A basic account is limited to 30 [[faith]] and 20 [[favor]].  === Become a Follower === # Research each religion's priests abilities and penalties to find which will suit you.# See [[Fo]], [[Libila]], [[Magranon]], [[Vynora]]# Raise your Faith to 30.# As a [[follower]] you cannot raise your Faith beyond 30. === Skills === # Nature skills should probably be kept as low as possible if you are on a basic account, since they generally affect soul characteristics which, in turn, improving|improve spell casting abilities. Keeping them low at the start in that case should help you raise soul faster if you become premium.# Support skills such as [[blacksmithing]]items, [[carpentry]], [[cloth tailoring]], [[masonry]], [[pottery]], [[stone cutting]] and [[woodcutting]] should all be raised to at least 20, and probably 30, so that you will not be left mostly unable to help yourself walls or your village in other ways after you become a prieststructures.# You should strongly consider raising [[Mind logic]] to 20.1 Priests can however still create, continue and [[Body control]] to 21 for the ability to command sailing boats plan items and to ride horses. These characteristics are much harder to gain without craftingstructures. === Characteristics ===

Assuming that you start == Losing faith ==Going against the will of a god will anger them and as a premium character or that you intend to become premium around result the priest will lose faith, the amount lost depends entirely on the time you become action taken. If a priest, it is important to raise your Strength characteristic to ever drop below 30 faith they will be stripped of their priesthood and re-join the ranks of the followers with an added 10 point loss in faith, leaving them at least 21 before you become a priest, since most priest penalties affect skills that raise strength well20.

When {{event|inline|<God> no longer accepts you become as a priest you must raise your soul strength/depth in order to improve the outcome of your spells. Libilian and Magranon priests must raise [[soul strength]], Fo and Vynoran Priests must raise [[soul depth]].!}}

== Guides =Premium ===Once a player runs out of [[premium]] time their faith and favor will be limited to 30 and they will temporarily lose priesthood. Once premium time is renewed all skills and priesthood will revert back. Priests who are no longer premium become followers and are therefore not under the strict limitations described in the table above, meaning there will be no severe faith loss for going unfaithful while non-premium. However sometimes the gods will punish followers for disobedience, so it may be wise not to test the will of the gods.;Faith gain beyond 30 is not possible for non-premium accounts.
