Probably the entitiy's "birth" or selection of type (for beings like Yinkin or Odayla, who actually chose to be one thing instead of another). You'll probably be up against someone proving the opposite of your own belief. Win at the HeroQuest challenge, and you & your supporters will be proven "right" - for you, your opponent, and all your supporters, the entity will be what the wiunner says it is.

So, frex, you could go back to when Odayla fought the great bear and "win" for the Spirit side of his nature. For you & your followers and your enemy & his followers, the proper way to worship Odayla will be via animism.
