| The true potential might of a Demigod will not be fully made manifest unless that Demigod is in the Order of an Elder God and that God decides to form a bond with the Demigod, in which case the Demigod becomes Their Avatar (sometimes referred to as Their Herald), gaining more powers on behalf of the Divine Order of their Patron God. This is not a bond that an Elder God will lightly undertake, as the essence cost to that God is staggering and represents a deep link between the essence of God and Demigod. Avatars are expected to be walking representations of their Patron God and often act as Their voice. Cults to venerate aspects of Elder Gods have begun to manifest in modern times, led by Avatars who seek to personify Their being.

Venerate
Having fanned your divine spark beyond that of a mere mortal, and having formed a bond with an Elder Divine, such a union can be furthered upon.
With the agreement of your patron, you can form a divine cult to venerate an aspect of Their divinity.
Meditation
| Syntax |
| MEDITATE UPON <patron> |
| Cost: 30,000 cult essence per meditation |
As a divine cult is formed, it is weak. The bond, however, can be expanded upon by meditating on it. By meditating at your altar, forged in the instant that you and your patron formed your union, you can increase the strength of your veneration.
Pilgrimage
| Syntax |
| VENERATE <patron> WITH PILGRIMAGE |
| Cost: 500 essence |
By venerating your God with a rite of Pilgrimage, They may grant you passage through the known planes to your cult's altar within Their realm.
| Additional Notes: |
| Slightly delayed teleport to the cult altar, from anywhere on Prime, Ethereal, Elemental, Cosmic, or Astral. |
Glory
| Syntax |
| VENERATE <patron> WITH GLORY |
| Cost: 10,000 essence |
Venerate your God with a rite of Glory, seeking divine wisdom for your cult. All members present will be granted experience, the amount varying on the number of members present.
Contemplations
| Syntax |
| VENERATE <patron> WITH REVERENTCONTEMPLATIONS |
| Cost: 5,000 essence |
Venerate your patron with a private ritual, drawing your physical and spiritual self closer to Them. For a time, sleeping within Their realm will increase your base health regeneration by three times.
| Additional Notes: |
| Only applies if you're sleeping, and only heals health. This might be useful for a dreamweaver's body, perhaps? |
Prospicience
| Syntax |
| VENERATE <patron> WITH PROSPICIENCE OF <cult member> |
| Cost: 500 essence |
See through the eyes of a member of your cult, and know the world as they know it. Only the Avatar may perform this rite, and it must be performed at the cult's altar.
| Additional Notes: |
| A one-time "look" at the other player's current location. |
SupplicantsPrayer
| Syntax |
| VENERATE <patron> WITH SUPPLICANTSPRAYER |
| Cost: 100,000 essence |
Increase the value of your cult's offerings with this rite of supplication. The more cultists are present at the time of its casting, the more potent the bonus. The benefit will last for one day, and then fade.
| Additional Notes: |
| With five cult members, you'll need to offer about eleven fully esteemed items during the following day to come out ahead. |
VindicatedVendetta
| Syntax |
| VENERATE <patron> WITH VINDICATEDVENDETTA |
| Cost: 5,000 essence Damage Buff: 1/10 to all sources (against order enemies) |
A personal promise to your Patron, you may beseech a vindication for your prejudice against cultists of an enemy god - and so smite them with a bolstered fury. Can only be cast at the cult's altar.
| Additional Notes: |
| Lasts one hour. Increased damage when you attack order enemies. |
Intervention
| Syntax |
| VENERATE <patron> WITH INTERVENTION OF <cult member> |
| Cost: 5,000 (Avatar Only) |
