Build me the relationship between the gods and their worshipers. Ideally, the god has some responsibility / dependency on their worshipers and the worshipers can access some degree of their god's power. Not quite a patron or dependant relationship. What've you got?

Well, I wrote up a sketch of a basic "minor deity" trait—not formally either a template or a meta-trait, but more like the latter—in GURPS Fantasy. That could be a starting point. It covered much of what you're talking about.
Alternatively, you can just define a deity as a Patron and not bother with a character sheet.
