Sun Tattoos of Emberus

Overview

Twin round, tribal-style sun tattoos that appeared on the backs of Carl's hands when he became an adherent of Emberus, God of Sun and Ash. These are divine marks of faith rather than dungeon tattoo passes — they appeared automatically upon joining the Church of Emberus.

System Description

Congratulations, Crawler. You have devoted your life and fate to one of service. You are now an adherent of Emberus, God of Sun and Ash!

Your ranking in the church: Acolyte.

Warning: You do not have a cleric or paladin class. As such, you may not ascend past Devotee. See the Deity tab for more information.

Emberus, the personification of a star's destructive power, welcomes you into his warm embrace. He welcomes all who accept his core philosophy. Emberus believes power, once held, must never sit idle. It is to be used and never squandered.

Because of your new-found faith, you must adhere to the following rules, lest you provoke the god's wrath.

You mustn't cause harm to fellow worshippers of Emberus.

You must stop and offer a single drop of blood at an Emberus temple at least once a day. If no temples are found in a 30-hour period, you must make the offering at the sun shrine that has now appeared in your personal space.

Five percent of all looted gold must also be tossed into the shrine.

You may not own or wield any magical gear that is blessed by the god Hellik.

You must successfully complete all issued church quests.

All adherents in good standing with the God Emberus receive the following holy benefits:

Access to all Temples of Emberus.

All temples of Emberus now appear on your map.

All temples of Hellik now appear on your map.

All worshippers of Emberus will be indicated with a symbol.

All worshippers of Hellik will be indicated with a symbol.

All Hellik-worshipping NPCs, crawlers, and mobs killed by you will now offer 100% more experience.

Immunity to Burn effect.

All physical attacks by you have a 10% chance to inflict Burn.

Free access* to Club Vanquisher, regardless of previous and current affiliations.

Every five consecutive days of worship, you will receive a boon from the god.

Additional benefits and responsibilities will become available as your worship circle increases.
