The Priests' Guild is centred, if it can be said to have a centre, in the temple quarter in Ankh-Morpork. Each god has their own temple, however, with the more popular gods having temples and shrines in many towns and villages. The god you choose to follow determines your alignment requirements, your rituals, and how much people will be bothering you. Pishites, for example, will be harassed for many, many things, from ressurecting dead players, to status restoration, to even curing drunkedness. Sekkites – and for that matter pretty much every other religion – won't be bothered too much.

Discworld Gods

Pishe, the Goddess of Slight Showers - The opposite of Sek; though what she lacks in strangeness she makes up for in vanity and snootiness.
Gufnork, the God of Fluff — Gufnork likes to evagelise his fluffy ways, and is generally fun to hang around with, without trying too hard.
Gapp, the God of Fine Clothing - He's too cool for the rest of us, as are his followers who have to constantly change their style to keep up with this hard to please god.
Sandelfon, the God of Corridors - The politically correct deity. Worshiped by those who seek order and enjoy the indoors.
Fish, the God of Sea Creatures — A fairly straight-forward god who likes followers who hunt and pillage and other such things.
Hat, the Vulture-Headed God of Unexpected Guests — A god who loves to party, Hat's followers are always up for a drink and a song.
Seven-Handed Sek — One of the more evil gods on the Disc, with a focus on being as generally frightening and strange as possible.

Abilities

As a Priest, your abilities will come in the form of rituals, which are rather like spells except that they use the faith skill tree. The god you choose to follow will influence which rituals you may learn. The faith skill tree also has its own set of commands you can learn as well.
