In Okot's ritual, her followers (mostly hunters) performs rituals in the coastal areas of their village. Despite being a forest god, Okot's ornaments in her antlers needs to be blown by wind. The sound the ornaments makes, spreads throughout the forest calling all the other forest spirits, where Okot is the leader of all of them. Signalling them to help the hunters to have a successful hunt in their next hunt. 

On Okot's appearance, she's one of the goddess that believes that their bodies are perfect, something to be worshipped by humans
