Editing Skein of Worlds:The Divine Realms (section)

== Belief ==
''Note: this section is the least designed and fully thought-out''

Deities depend on belief for their power, and they return some of that power to a few, chosen believers. The big question is, why the deities exist in the first place.

''Insert table relating # of believers to divine rank here/realm size/etc, or that might be in GMs Guide''

=== Pantheons ===
It is unusual for an individual to only believe in one deity, even if they only worship one. Often belief in one deity automatically implies belief in others simply because those deities interact with one another. This is how pantheons are formed.

The belief in a pantheon of deities has an effect on the shape of the divine realms. This usually manifests as a seperate divine realm, not belonging to any one deity. This place is connected to realm of each deity in the pantheon though. It is here that divine wars are waged, meetings are called, or other pantheon-wide interactions take place. ''There needs to be a term for such a place.''

Since these places do not belong to one deity, they are shaped more by the belief of the worshipers than anything else. Similarly, no souls are sent to these places, and no outsiders are native to these realms. That's not to say that these places are lifeless. Many deities send many outsiders to these places for many reasons.
