I had a bit of an idea for something for orders or temples. A way to convert imbued items into a symbol or token of some sort of your god/goddess. It could just be the same amount of decay time as the converted object (Or less, unless properly stored) possibly have some restriction about what it can be offered for? Or only work for defiling/sanctifying?

Thoughts?

I suppose I don't really understand the point - I presume it could be offered for the same amount of essence, with the same restrictions (5% at a time) - so I'm kind of at a loss as to the point behind it? Unless I'm missing something, and if that is the case, please expound.

Giving the order another means of stapling 'Eventru' to their forehead sounds like a good enough idea on its own, though.

You could always make it have slightly more effect in an Order War (so the same amount of essence does more) if it needs to have some purpose. Not much, given that we don't ever have any order wars, but whatever, heh.

Or maybe make the token of your god not poof when all the esteem is offered out of it, so that you can use it like an 'esteem battery'.

Well, right now stuff is usually stored in shops, and people often want to donate essence items to the order in a variety of random confusing objects. Is one reason. Also flavor is nice. And the idea for order wars is interesting. Might be more effective with emnity or something? Lose effects without it?

Things like bottles might be easy to mix up with sales, and there really isn't any definitive item to imbue. And I think there is something to committing the item to JUST be for that sort of thing, and not just be some random persons offering fodder.
