Worship provides many bonuses to the player. The Gods of Elin each have their own domains and relationships with each other.

Bonuses from worship scale with how long you have been worshipping the deity in question, as well as your piety (favor with him or her).

Special actions granted by worship cost stamina to activate.

In addition to the above deities, Elin has other deities such as Elin of Harmony and Yaksha of Oblivion, but players are not currently allowed to worship them.


Aside: Festivals and Gods

In seasonal festivals, some deities are worshipped or motifs are used as the main actors of the festival.

Yaksha of Oblivion: Festival of the Dead in Port Kapul, 6th month

Kumiromi of Harvest: Harvest Festival in Yowyn, 9th month

Jure of Healing: the Holy Night Festival in Noyel, 12th month

The Moonsong Festival of Olvina, 3rd month, is also a festival in honor of Odina, the Goddess of Compassion, although she is not a deity that can be worshipped.

Worship and Conversion

By right-clicking on the altar and selecting “Worship”option, you can worship that deity.

At the Truce Ground north of Palmia, there are altars set up for the seven Pillars of Ylva (Izpalt, Opatos, Kumiromi, Jure, Lulwy, Ehekatl, and Mani) and Eyth.

As for the other deities, Kizuami has an altar dedicated to him in Mifu Village, south of Lumiest, Horome in Nefu Village, further north from the Truce Ground, and Yevan in The Place Where Winds Rest, east of Mysilia.

Note that the altars of Mani and Yevan are also located in Aquli Teola, so if you wish to worship them, we recommend that you head that way, which are closer to My home.

If you convert to another god while you have faith in a deity other than Eyth, you will receive divine punishment from the original deity with a strength corresponding to the number of days of faith, and as a penalty, an iron ball that cannot be dropped will be placed in the player's inventory. It's a burden on the player, and its weight is variable and scales with the player's carrying capacity before conversion. Therefore, Opatos, who grants bonuses to weight lifting and Strength, will have a very heavy penalty for abandoning the faith.

Praying

The player may pray to their god once a day. Praying completely heals the player's HP and MP, in addition to training faith. Unlike in Elona, it does not cost piety.

Offerings and Piety

The player may offer an item as an offering by highlighting an altar of their god and selecting the "offer" option, or directly placing the item on the altar.

While all the gods of Ylva accept corpses as offerings, each also accepts other items. Heavier corpses and more valuable offerings grant more piety. If the player is a demigod, the amount of piety gained is multiplied by 1.25. Gifting offerings also trains the player's faith.

Unlike in Elona, gods do not appear to have favored offerings amongst those they accept. Instead, particularly valuable offerings will provoke the same response from the player's worshipped deity that was reserved for favored offerings in Elona.

Other changes from Elona include the fact that food-based offerings, such as fish and vegetables, are worth much less when spoiled. Also, they cannot be offered after being cooked. However, for gods who favor cooked dishes, the raw ingredients cannot be offered; for example, Kizuami will request "noodle dishes" but will not accept "noodles" before they are cooked.

A stack of items can be offered all at once; it will count as a single offering with the combined value of the entire stack.

Piety can be exchanged for goods and services. When the player has acquired enough piety by making offerings, praying will deliver a reward.

If you offer the crops you took away by harvest request to Kumiromi, he will accept them, but your karma will decrease.

The Value of the Offering

The text of the item's dedication gives the approximate value of the item (the piety gained).

  • The demigod will receive a bonus based on the piety they have received, but the text displayed here will be determined by the original value without the correction.
Value Message
< 0.5 disappears.
0.5 ~ 2.0 shines for a moment and disappears.
2.0 ~ 3.0 shines for a moment and disappears. A four leaf clover falls from the alter.
> 3.0 shines all around and disappears. + Response from your God

There are two main standards of value for offerings, either variable in weight or fixed value.

The quality and price of items and the rarity of equipment such as miracle and godly do not affect the value of offerings, but the value of food is significantly reduced when it decays. Whether the improvement value of crops affects the value of offerings is currently under investigation.

Static value(Books and rods)

Books and rods are supposed to have the following values, regardless of the number of uses remaining, type, or deciphering status.

Magic books: +4, Ancient Books and Naughty Books: +5, Rods: +3

Depends on weight

The value of offerings other than books and rods depends on the weight per item.

Corpses gain piety at a rate of 1.0 /1.0s.

The piety for gods other than corpses receive 1 point when they are less than 0.5 s. Offerings heavier than 0.5 s receive a piety equal to twice their weight (1 point per 0.5 s).

However, the maximum amount of piety gained from a single offering is 20 points, no matter how heavy it is, such as a shark (280.0s) or a whale (1200.0s).

If the offering is rotten, it gains piety at a rate of 0.2/1.0s, and if it is less than 0.5s, it gains 0.1 point of piety.

Stacking and dedicating items increases the strength of each offering.

However, there is an upper limit to the amount of piety that can be increased by a single offering, and if too many items are offered at once, the excess will be wasted.

The maximum amount is 30 points, so it is advisable to make offerings in smaller portions.

Maximum piety that can be raised at one time

The piety has a border set at every 30 points, and if offerings of more than this value are offered all at once, the points earned for the excess are reduced by half. In addition, the excess can only accumulate a maximum of 15 points (equivalent to 30 points without halving).

This attenuation and upper limit also apply to experience to faith skill.

Piety

The upper limit of piety is faith skill x 30, and the approximate current value can be measured from the yellow-green text that appears every 30 points earned.

The message will vary according to the ratio of the current piety to the maximum piety. If the message “You have felt oneness with God.” means that you are currently at the maximum level of faith, and you will need to increase your faith skill level to deepen your faith beyond that point.

Current value/max value Message
0 ~ 25% You feel your God(dess) is distant.
25 ~ 45% You feel the distance to your God(dess) lessening.
45 ~ 75% You feel a sense of peace.
75 ~ 99% You feel as if your God(dess) is right beside you.
100% You feel a sense of oneness with your God(dess).

Altar conversion

Offering an item on an altar not of one's god will attempt to claim the altar for the player's god. The success chance is dependent on the offering's piety gain. Successful conversion of the altar will result in a piety bonus of about 1 point for the altar of Eyth and about 5 points for any other deity, while failure will result in punishment(200 turns). Attempts to convert altars dedicated to Eyth will never fail as the altar is considered empty.

Special altars like Mani's machine altar in Aqui Teola, Kizuami's shrine in Mifu Village, Horome's shrine in Nefu Village, and the altar of Yevan in cannot be converted.

Special altars such as the cyber altar of Mani in Aquli Teola, the altar of Kizuami in Mifu Village, the altar of Horome in Nefu Village, and the altar of Yevan in The Place Where Winds Rest cannot be taken over.

In addition, the altars located at the Truce ground and the altar of Jure in Noyel, which look like ordinary altars, cannot be taken over as well.

Rewards

When a player earns a certain amount of piety through offerings or the passage of days of faith, God may reward the player when he or she prays manually.

Note that when a player prays automatically using the Feat of Model Follower, the reward is not received even if the conditions are met.

Pets

The first reward a god offers will be a pet. In order to advance your piety to the level where you can receive a pet, you must have a Faith skill of 15 or higher.

This follower will be of the apostle race, and always has the faith of its respective god. They are all considered good for riding.

While you can collect followers from different gods, attempting to put more than two in a party together will cause infighting amongst the apostles, which practically speaking means you can only ever use two at a time at most. This conflict even occurs between apostles who believe in the same God.

The second reward a god offers will be an artifact. In order to advance your piety to the level where you can receive an artifact, you must have a Faith skill of 30 or higher.

Each weapon has a faction effect, which means that any NPC belonging to the same faction as the player can equip it and it will benefit all characters in the faction and any NPCs they temporarily summon or dominate.

However, the faction effect only works if the player has faith in the deity corresponding to the artifact. The faction effect on the artifact disappears when the player converts, but the enchantment is restored when the player returns to that faith again.

The artifact can be reacquired by offering it to the altar of the bearer's god. If a game update changes the performance of an artifact, the artifact can be regenerated in this way.

Blessing

Obtaining a pot of water and placing it on the altar of one's god (Eyth included) will bless the water. The blessed water can then be blended with an item to bless it.

Placing water on an altar of a god one is not aligned with will curse it instead, and the cursed water can be blended with an item to curse it.

Relation and Mood

Relationships with deities and God Mood are currently unimplemented systems.

The profiles of the deities and their relationship to the player, with the exception of the backer deities (Kizuami, Horome, and Yevan), can be found on the Religion tab of the Journal.

Gods begin the game indifferent to the player. At the moment, the relationship does not change as a result of the player's actions, such as believing in the god, deepening their piety, abandoning faith, converting an altar, etc.


It is also possible to display a “God Mood” item in the information bar that displays the player's attributes and possessions through the widget's settings.

Immediately after worship, your god will be "Delighted", and after that, their mood will change randomly every hour, but so far it does not seem to have any particular effect on the game.

  • God Moods: Delighted＞Overjoyed＞Pleased＞Calm＞Sullen>Displeased＞Enranged

The Pantheon

The Seven Pillars

The chief deities of Ylva: Itzpalt, Opatos, Kumiromi, Jure, Lulwy, Ehekatl and Mani (formerly Eyth). They govern large domains that impact the daily lives of Ylva's population and command most of the worship to be had.

  • Interpersonal relationships between the Seven Pillars and Eyth, by MT.

    Interpersonal relationships between the Seven Pillars and Eyth, by MT.

Major Gods

Major deities of the pantheon. While not as prominent as the Seven Pillars, they hold sway over sizeable domains and have a good number of followers.

Examples of major gods are Elin of Harmony and Yakasha of Oblivion.

Minor Gods

Lesser gods of the pantheon. They govern smaller or specialized domains which the major gods have overlooked, and are worshipped by a smaller number of select peoples or professions.

Examples of lesser gods are Kizuami of Trickery, Horome of Moonshadow and Yevan of Strife.

Negentropy (Chaos) Gods

Some gods are bad. During previous ages of Ylva, they were defeated in holy wars and sealed away by the Seven Pillars of the pantheon.

Innos Tur'as is an example of a negentropy god, and may be encountered in The Place Where Winds Rest.
