Of Pacts and Patrons brings elements of religion into the game, by allowing you to pick a Daedric Prince to worship, OR a Nine Divine or Tribunal Saint to be your patron. You perform devotional acts and can receive powers, abilities, and spells in return as your devotion and faith grow.
More specifically, doing various Devotional Acts gives you “points”. The specific acts and rewards, of course, are different depending on which Patron you choose. Note that you can pray to all Patrons once per day for 1 Devotion.
Here’s what we got so far.
