I started up a FeVM following along with Ultraviolent's series. D2 yielded an altar of Ru. The first sacrifice was a no-brainer experience over two crippling options, and I'm sitting on two pips. Now on D:5 I have Skill (which seems very rough, but gives another two pips of piety), Purity - Screaming (which is trivial and will probably bork stealth), and Love (which surprisingly also gives another two pips of piety - it is usually trivial, is this enhanced for felids?). I have found no gear of note besides the starting Transmuter book. My skills are set for casting, dodging, and stealth. Will add fighting once Olgreb's is decently castable.
In the short-term, Love is the obvious choice since there is no immediate cost for the payoff. But I've no experience with felids, and can't help but wonder if locking out summonings/mirrors/boxes of beasts is going to make the game unwinnable several hours down the road. Is Skill the better choice? I don't want to reject sacrifices or take Screaming, as five pips may be necessary to deal with Lair threats.
