Whats happening in the Priests Guild

"Throughout the history of the Disc most high priests have been serious, pious and conscientious men who have done their best to interpret the wishes of the gods, sometimes disemboweling or flaying alive hundreds of people in a day in order to make sure they're getting it absolutely right."
-- Pyramids, Terry Pratchett
Rituals.
A huge number of new rituals became available after the latest faith changes, with a number more appearing in the weeks that followed. These rituals were:

Agoraphobia, Blight, Chant, Divine Hand, Endless Halls, Food of Life, Harden, Haunting, Holy Sacrifice, Horror, Paranoia, Parch, Relief, Searing Touch, Silken Ward, Soothing Rain, Splash, Stasis, Terror, Tongues, Unquiet Spirit, Weft Warping, Withering Touch, and Wrath.

More recently, the rituals Sparkling Shelter and Sacred Fins became available. You can get information on all these rituals on the rituals page.

Recently, the fumble ritual underwent some changes. These mainly effect the ability of the target who is fumbled to notice they have dropped their weapon (note this does not mean they notice the cause), pick it up and rehold. The effectiveness of this is based on skills, some priests may notice this effect far more than others.

The Gossip.
The latest gossip is in, read on to find out about the latest visit to the bar by some well known figures, and some revealing truths about Sektarians:
[priests] Warrax wisps: Me and Sandelfon, we have an understanding :)
[priests] Turvity wisps: You got him drunk again last weekend, didn't you?
[priests] Warrax wisps: I can't take responsibility for how much a God drinks ... he challenged me to the competition ...
[priests] Turvity wisps: Oh, and having Popshot remove his cure drunkenness ritual wasn't your idea?
[priests] Warrax wisps: Well, its hardly fair to let him cheat, was it. Especially when we had a few royals on it.
[priests] Turvity wisps: And the fact that when he put the same restriction on you, you convinced a Pishite to help?
[priests] Warrax wisps: Bah, since when is Poptot a pishite?
[priests] Turvity wisps: He was claiming that he was that night... then again, he'd been at the overproof scumble for a few hours.
[priests] Warrax wisps: He does seem to have a fondness for the stuff, true .. that was no excuse for swinging from the celing though.
[priests] Turvity wisps: Or was that not what he meant by "I need to make a small shower" ?
[priests] Warrax wisps: That might have been his renovation plans for the weekend, though.
[priests] Warrax wisps: He might only have a small bathroom.
[priests] Poptot wisps: I would just like to say, Warrax did not get Sandelfon drunk.
[priests] Poptot wisps: I would just like to say, Warrax did not get Sandelfon drunk.
[priests] Poptot wisps: So much so, in fact, that I'd like to say it twice.
[priests] Poptot wisps: It was, in fact, me. :)
[priests] Warrax wisps: You couldn't even remember which temple you lived in ... we had to call a member of 'taxi' to get you home ...
[priests] Poptot wisps: I didn't say I wasn't getting -me- drunk too, did I? *grin*
[priests] Poptot wisps: Besides... it was theraputic. :) Sandelfon came to terms with his new neighbor Popshot...
[priests] Durden wisps: youre all crazy
[priests] Brindle wisps: But in a fluffy way
[priests] Turvity wisps: Ah, so that's what all the singing was.
[priests] Warrax wisps: You don't have to be crazy to worship Sandelfon, but it helps.
[priests] Poptot wisps: Not crazy, so much as not quite sane.
[priests] Durden wisps: being crazy helps in alot of things
[priests] Poptot wisps: Barely sane to barely crazy. :)
[priests] Poptot wisps: Yep. It was quite a night. :)
[priests] Warrax wisps: Just a warning to all though, don't let Sandelfon and Popshot sing ....
[priests] Poptot wisps: Sandelfon made the bartender a bishop again...
[priests] Warrax wisps: Hmmm, aren't we running out of rural temples to put these bartenders in yet?
[priests] Poptot wisps: Yep. We're also running out of vestments. :)
[priests] Turvity wisps: Start having these religious observances at Ms. Gytha Ogg's, up Lancre way... open bar and other people to clean. :)
[priests] Warrax wisps: Hmmm, I suppose people will complain if we use the 'invisible vestments' again?
[priests] Turvity wisps: *shudders*
[priests] Poptot wisps: Don't they always?
[priests] Turvity wisps: *ponders, then shudders again*
[priests] Poptot wisps: And then the bishops always complain about it being too cold.
[priests] Durden wisps: Oh come on warrax we sport our invisible vestments in the streets all the time
[priests] Warrax wisps: Its sad really, they just don't understand what its all about.
[priests] Turvity wisps: You call them bishops? How cute. ;)
[priests] Warrax wisps: Bishops for some Turvity, I have an Archbishop at least, myself :)
[priests] Turvity wisps: *rethinks her beliefs on a group who proudly bare yellow rods in public*
[priests] Warrax wisps: Its usually Kess who wanders around with her yellow rod, Turvity :)
[priests] Turvity wisps: Well, the Sekkites were never known for their rationalism.
[priests] Warrax wisps: Too many arms and not enough .... yellow rods, Turvity?
[priests] Turvity wisps: Well, I suppose they can please themselves.
