Divine Energy is a measurable[1] energy field associated with the Spectrosphere responsible for interractions between the physical reality and the imagined reality connected to the amount of (typically religious) faith in supernatural phenomena (especially the divine) which a person holds, with higher numbers of 'worshippers' being able to cause significant enough fluctuations in Divine Energy fields to slightly alter reality thru their collective belief via a process similar to the interactions between Memoria and Orgone. Divine Energy fluctuations can only be produced by sapient lifeforms, objects associated with the faith, or the entities being worshipped themselves. Divine Energy generation requires a specific kind of belief, with the mere acknowledgement of higher entities being insufficient when compared to perceiving the divine as both real and supernatural, which when combined with physical acts of worship and especially a lack of doubt[2] can produce heightened fluctuations. Divine Energy accumulates in locations with continuous intense worship as long as it continues to occur such as worship sites, cities, and spiritual planets, with the more individuals worshipping/believing in something amplifying the fluctuations significantly. Alongside worshippers, Divine Energy may also slightly fluctuate via acts such as altruism or delusional tendencies, and may only decrease in the presence of 'anti-religious' events such as the presence of malevolent entities or forbidden acts around beings which generate Divine Energy.

Most notably, Divine Energy generated by biological lifeforms allows for the Deities they worship to obtain a physical form with power over the domain their worshippers as long as they truly believe in the Deity's actions. Divine Energy fuels the continued existence and abilities of Deities even after they reach the physical world, as such the cessation of worship leads to Deities' physical presence ceasing to exist.

  1. Certain devices may be able to detect Divine Energy, which is heightened from its natural 'background level' in places of worship, sacred objects or other such assets.
  2. If a person does not believe their worship is going anywhere, then Divine Energy will not be generated.
