Reality check time for me:
Many gods wander around all the time and pick up useful items, tricks and charms (like Orlanth) or sit in state and have them delivered to them (Old Shiny). Now, by devoting himself to a religion, the initiate becomes more similar to the deity, right?
For game balance purpose, maybe the new devotee has to expend hero points once more to make these abilities part of the acceptable magic.
