*'''[[Scenarios#Player_demigods|Demigods]]''' may join the ranks of the deities on [[Valrei]] and create their own religion for players to follow, battling for the victory of their followers.
===Demigod===
A player may become a demigod providing they have assisted their god enough in their [[mission]]s to win [[scenarios]], and obtain a unique item dropped from the heavens. Depending on the outcome of future battles on [[Valrei]] that demigod may then ascend to as a fully fledged god creating their own religion.

'''Religion''' takes a very large role in Wurm Online, from creating enchanted items and casting offensive spells, to using rare and unique artifacts sent from the gods. Although it's entirely possible to have an enjoyable experience without religion, it can help to take away some of the monotony of day-to-day life for a Wurmian and provide an extra edge during combat.
==Overview==
In the beginning there were four [[gods]]; the three [[White_light|white light]] gods [[Fo]], [[Vynora]], and [[Magranon]] and the [[Black Light|black light]] god [[Libila]]. In more recent times, some Wurmians have had succeeded in their efforts to ascendto godhood and for a brief time, adding six new player-Wurmians turned from the old gods to worship new ones. Thankfully, now the pantheon. The white light player gods [[Nahjo]], [[Paaweelr]] and [[Smeagain]] have been proven false and religiously minded Wurmians have returned to worship the black light four original gods [[Nathan]], [[Tosiek]], and [[Gary]].
Following a religion gives many bonuses to a player, the greatest of which is the ability to become a [[priest]], or [[Champion_player|champion]], or a [[Scenarios#Player_demigods|demigod]].
*'''[[Follower]]s''' receive bonuses to some of their skills when of appropriate faith and favor. 20 for faith and 10 for favor.
*'''[[Priest]]s''' can cast powerful spells; destroying their enemy or imbuing items and weapons with special abilities.
*'''[[Champion_player|Champions]]''' gain massive defence and skill bonuses.
==Worship==
As a reward for becoming a champion, priests are given massive bonuses to their religious and characteristics skills, increased defence, and faster healing. Becoming a champion is not easy, nor is retaining the title. There are a limited number of champions each god will permit at any time and death will reduce the faith a god has in their champions. They will be demoted for too many failures.

==Domains==
The distance of influence for a domain depends entirely on the quality and [[altar|type of altars]] nearby. The highest quality, and therefore most influential, will control the domain in the area.

=== Animals of the gods ===
* [[Wild boar]]: [[Fo]]
* [[Mountain Gorilla]]: [[Magranon]]
* [[Anaconda]]: [[Vynora]]
* [[Rabid hyena]]: [[Libila]]
==Skill==
Religion is also the top branch in its respective skill set, covering [[favorpreaching]], [[faithprayer]] , [[channeling]], and [[alignmentexorcism]]. The religion skill itself holds no confirmed additional bonuses but does provide special [[title]]s for those who meet a milestone. The religion skill increases with gains in the 3 4 child values.
