Anubite & Demigod Shrines
🕑 Added 2021-04-15 20:18:00 +0000 UTCHey all,
It's finally here - the fabled 'Shrine' post. We've spoken about these rewards in the past, but it's always useful to know exactly what you can expect! So then, what exactly is a shrine?
In Carnal Instinct Shrines are powerful sites that hold the essence of a Demigod. Unlike a Ritual Vessel or Keystone, Shrines contain not merely their power but instead the very soul of the Demigod. Players that hold (or have held) the relevant tier for 6 months, or who pay for those tiers annually, will now unlock shrines of their own. These structures will remain in the map forever and become part of Sabu even if said Patron stops supporting the project. If they remain a supporter however, the shrine will grow in wealth and size, eventually featuring an orgy of its own.
Found in the Tomb of the Ascended zone, the entrances to shrines will dot the landscape, expanding existing ruins or hidden beneath villages. The specific location of a Shrine, and the entrance to it, is left to the discretion of the development team, however there are a wealth of choices that eligible patrons will be surveyed on in the coming days. Many of these do not require images to accompany them, however those that do are included in this post.
The layout of a Shrine is universal, although it will extend further once support at a qualifying tier reaches 12 months (or for those with annual billing). Usually found clustered in groups of 3 - 12 within a single larger complex, the structures are comprised of an 8M x 8M room, supported by ornate pillars and housing a statue in the center. Around the statue will be offerings left by Acolytes of the Demigod. After the tier is held for 9 months by Anubite Patrons, or 6 months for Demigod Tier Patrons (i.e. immediately upon shrine unlock), Acolytes devoting themselves to the deity will be present. The numbers of followers and offerings will grow with time, for every month the tier is held. If a subscription is ended all rewards earned will remain forever.
The various finishes and details available for the shrine allow a broad range of customisation; from a 'realistic' Egyptian-style painted sandstone finish, to an ethereal fragment of the void. The 'main' surface is the material listed first in each swatch and will be what the structure is actually made of. The other listed part of each option is the detail material. For Gold this means that the patterns and carvings will be inlaid with gold, giving a luxurious finish. For Void this means that the room itself will be a fragmented shell, cracks in reality showing through to the endless expanse of the 'space between spaces'.
Summary of customisation options:
- Pillar Type (3 options)
- Statue Species (Human, Jackal, Feline, Equine, Serpentine, Draconic, Void, & more)
- Surface Finish (4 options)
- Acolyte Specifics (Species, Sexual Orientation, Sex Act*)
- Offering type (4 options)
- Other misc 'yes/no' cosmetic options
*must be an existing sex act or a Demigod reward act
Demigod Specific Options
Shrines for Demigod Patrons are the same as those for Anubites, however they start at a more developed point. The Shrine will be the default location of any bonus content funded by that Patron. Demigod Patrons can also elect to swap their 'genital option', 'sex scene', or any other reward for unique upgrades to their shrine. For example you can see on the roadmap that one shrine will grant a bonus to Player and NPC fertility once activated, something specifically requested by a Patron in place of other content. If you would like to discuss what is possible then please DM echo via Discord.
Whatever you choose there will be a wealth of other options to outfit your shrine, so watch out for the survey as and when it drops in the next few days.
Thank you so much for your continued support and as always please don't hesitate to reach out to ask over on the #vip-anubites-only channel if you have queries regarding the shrine.
