As you progress in rank in your Order, you will gain the ability to use various powers.

ORDER PRIVILEGES (or just ORDER PRIVS) will show you your order-related powers.

Many of the Order powers are related to shrines. For these, you must be at an appropriate shrine, and then:

  BESEECH <deity> FOR <power>

Major Shrine Powers can only be used at Major shrines and generally have an effect on the shrine's room and any adjacent locations.
