Maybe a form of magic? Pray to this religion in the game, and you get a types of magic. It can be passive, activated, or at certain times.
For example, if you pray to, lets say 'The River of Cyclops'
One passive effect is that you can swim regardless of skill for a certain amount of time, may train the skill or not, depends.
One active effect is you could gain super cyclops strength for a certain amount of time (Maybe sacrifice some health?)
One thing that can happen only when the moment is right is, lets say your getting your arse handed to you by that damn Giant Cave Spider. Oh noes! Your about to die! Whats this? OH SHIT! YOU TURNED INTO AN ENRAGED CYCLOPS!
Depending on how many followers, religion skill/magic skill you have is how powerful the effects are. For example, if its a very small religion only known to one town, you probably only get the active effect, and its very very little. Compared to a religion that everyone knows, may have more than one passive effect.
