You may pray to the various gods of Crawl by pressing p. Prayer's effect depends entirely on the particular god you worship.
Praying at an altar whose god you are not currently worshiping will give you an offer to enter that god's service (if eligible). Be aware that if you already worship another god, switching religions may result in penance (see individual gods for details). Merely praying at another god's altar and declining to convert will have no effect, however.
Several gods accept offerings of corpses or other items through prayer, granting piety in exchange. Normally only items on your tile (that is, on the floor) are affected; exceptions include gold in your inventory for Zin and corpses in your line of sight for Fedhas. It takes one turn to offer corpses.
