Which gods are prayed in the House of the Heavens? In general, what is the dominant religion in Medinaat al-Salaam?
Shilah extensively, perhaps some prayers to Kaleel as well.
There would be lessons/stories from Mekhem but that doesn't really fall under 'worship' so much.

For the maze:
Find the Path: Roll Hunting/Perception (Trailblazing) at TN15 or Lore: Medinaat al-Salaam/Perception at TN20. Mekham characters reduce the TN by 5. Way of the Land: Medinaat al-Salaam reduces the TN by 5. Absolute Direction reduces the TN by 5. These reductions stack and may negate the need to roll. If traveling to a location within the Maze you have visited before Precise Memory applies despite this not being an Intelligence check.
Would Lore: Underworld also work here?
I'd allow it if you're specifically seeking something criminal but not for general path finding.
Continuation question here

Apologies if this has been answered. Will there be xp this game, seeing as it's a short one?

Dangerous threads may earn some and there will be a small bit at session flip and game end.

Follow-up question here - Are these dangerous threads
planned, or do they come up on an
as-needed basis? I'm guessing that D4 thing you mentioned in the event is one, for example?
That's not to say I'm actively trying to find chances to hurt poor Faruq, but...
(Ok, maybe I am
)
EDIT: Another follow-up question here - are there any rolls that might help remember additional info here to get Aydi and me going with this search?

So, we gain points if we raise for Called Shots. Do those Called Shots have any effects outside of more points? e.g. aim for the eye etc...

For this game they came up as needed other than D4's event. Future games may have them planned.

Only for points.
Basically you can call raises for damage to try and be the overall winner or you can call raises for showboating to try to get guaranteed points.

Would the Yodotai chain shirt be allowed for the event?
It would confer a -5 penalty to my rolls

Overall armor is not allowed. He could try to sneak it in under a tunic but it's likely to be pretty obvious after the first arrow.
