Rudd is a popular goddess in the Oeridian rural areas, and her worship has spread to the Flan-populated areas as well. She is frequently invoked by craftsman, thieves, gamblers, and adventurers -- professions that depend on a mixture of luck and skill ("Luck favors the skilled"). Her church consists of small chapels, run primarily by women, with rarely more than two or three priests and a handful of acolytes in an area.

The duties of Rudd's priesthood are primarily guidance, blessing, and aid: they offer advice, give Rudd's blessing to her flock, and treat sickness and disease in the community. Despite their skill with arms, her priests and priestesses are encouraged to resort to force only when other means have been exhausted, and to remain aloof from the conflicts of other churches.

Rudd is generally described as a middle-aged (but still youthful seeming) woman, of merry disposition and imposing (though pleasing) stature. She rarely carries armaments, and is usually accompanied by Penumbra, her grey fox. Representations of Rudd are usually rendered in wood carvings, frescoes, or stained glass, rather than statues.
