When patronizing a particular [[god]] in ''Dungeon Crawl'', you are sometimes rewarded with a '''gift''' from that god. These gifts tend to reflect the overall theme and character of the gift-giving deity, and are typically only rewarded to pious characters (i.e. those who have acquired a significant amount of [[piety]]) with some exceptions.

Although all the various powers and abilities a god provides his or her followers might well be viewed as "gifts" as well, ''Dungeon Crawl'' vernacular generally only refers to awarded [[items]] as gifts, although this too comes with exceptions and alternate uses.

''See also [[Gift Timeout]] for more regarding these types of gifts''

==Gods which award gifts==
*Although [[Ashenzari]] does not provide gifts in a traditional manner, he does provide various [[Curse|cursing]] scrolls (used to help followers gain piety) with the sacrifice of scrolls of [[remove curse]].

*[[Beogh]] does not provide item gifts, but at high piety will allow a follower to gift an already possessed item of his or her own choosing to a particuarly worthy ally.

*While [[Gozag Ym Sagoz]] does not provide any otherwise "free" gifts, he facilities the acquisition of virtually any item through direct purchase (e.g. potions) or with the purchase of [[shop]]s.

*[[Jiyva]] the Shapeless does not provide traditional gifts, but at high piety will unlock the [[vault]]s at the bottom of the [[Slime Pits]], providing access to many items (in addition to the ''slimy rune of Zot'').

*Aside from the arguable "gifting" of [[corpse]]s, [[Kikubaaqudgha]] gifts [[randart]] [[spellbook]]s containing [[necromancy]] spells. These are particularly notable, in that such gifts begin at relatively low levels of piety.

*[[Nemelex Xobeh]] will gift faithful followers many [[deck]]s of cards, as his domain and powers are centered around such. This gifting is notable in that it may begin a lower levels of piety and increase as piety is gained.

*At high piety, [[Okawaru]] gifts [[ammo]] and [[weapon]]s, and is the only god to provide gifts of [[armor]].

*[[Sif Muna]] will gift very pious followers many spellbooks.

*With sufficent piety (at the same levels as Okawaru), Trog the Wrathful will gift ammo and fierce weaponry.

*While [[Vehumet]] does not gift items, beginning at a low level of piety, he will gift the opportunity to memorize various destructive spells.

*[[Xom]] the Unpredictable, as his title suggests, will unpredictably gift items, which are equally unpredictable in both type and amount.

*[[Yredelemnul]] does not gift items but will provide followers "gifts" of [[undead]] servants

==Gods which do not provide item gifts==
*[[Cheibriados]]
*[[Dithmenos]]
*[[Elyvilon]]
*[[Fedhas Madash]]
*[[Lugonu]]
*[[Makhleb]]
*[[Qazlal Stormbringer]]
*[[Ru]]
*[[The Shining One]]
*[[Zin]]
