Prayer Idols are zesty holy items that are occasionally sold at Ebon Gate, such as the ones that were sold in Idol Worship. They also appear to have the AllMine script attached, as anyone other than the person who drops the idol is not able to pick it up - which is important since the idols are generally used while on the ground. Someone who attempts to pick up the idol that is not the person to drop it will receive the message, "The idol does not belong to you."
The prayer idols are able to be altered and contain either a long description or a show description.

The ability to change the messaging on an ivory and golvern drake idol is extremely limited.
You get no sense of whether or not the idol may be further lightened. Usage
