Augment your worship panthon (e.g., using Heortling Mythology), provide modifiers for appropriate situations, modify the resistance, spend hero points, or modify the resistance.

Augmentations should be easy for characters using Mythology, relationships and so on, or by pooling calls for divine aid and augmenting eachother.
