    I think a good idea for an expansion pack (that I would certainly buy) would be adding a deity system to the game:
    after selecting your skills you get to select one deity (Lutefisk god, Inconsequencia, Krong, the diggle Pantheon, and
    maybe even Dredmor). Each deity could have a special monster tree attributed to it (fish paladins=Lutefisk god,
    questers= Inconsequencia, ancient kronians= Krong, diggle priests= Pantheon, dread knights= Dredmor), and if
    you worship said deity, then the monsters will not be hostile and will help you instead. Each religion will give you a
    few stat bonuses (Lutefisk god= Stubbornness/HP, Inconsequentia= Nimbleness/Savvy, Krong= Burliness/HP,
    Pantheon= a bit of everything (mostly MP though), Dredmor= Caddishness/Sagacity), and finally every religion
    gets one type of altar/shrine/statue/anvil (Lutefisk god= Lutefisk statue, Inconsequencia= statue of Inconsequencia,
    Krong= anvil of Krong, Pantheon= all the diggle god altars, Dredmor= shrine of Dredmor),and if you worship said deity,
    the holy places are more effective (Lutefisk statue= required amount of lutefisk for prizes divided by 5, statue of Inconsequencia= you get an unlimited amount of quests (although not at the same time), anvil of Krong= you never get
    cursed equipment, diggle god altars= you can have three blessings at the same time, shrine of Dredmor= (regular effects
    are that you earn a fair bit of exp by finding them) you also get a fair bit of zorkmids (NOTE: this might require editing the
    regular dredmor statues)). Also it would be nice to add a blessing option with the crafting system and a few new skillsets (maybe priest, paladin, and also editing the demonologist tree so it adds some consecrating skill on certain levels), along with the consecrating crafting skill, which is used for all crafting objects under the blessing command. Also make it so each religion gives you a bunch of secret blessing recipies (don't really have any ideas at the moment).
    Is this a good idea?
