I believe you can do it before this. Once you complete Gaab'Baay's first non-ratling quest (boar skull, IIRC), then you can get crowned if you want.

I wouldn't worry about this too much. Do it on whatever altar is convenient. There's no reason to do Gaab'Baay's quests all that early in the game, so you can wait till you have huge pile of Casino gold to get your favoured crowning. Changing alignments isn't much of an issue before level 40 or so, TBH.

It converts as easily as other altars, AFAIK, but converting it will make all of DT hostile, so this is probably a bad idea as it will screw up the demented ratling quest (unless you've already done it, but by this point he'll be pretty dangerous). Even if you convert the altar, I'm not sure that most of the inhabitants can be sacrificed...
Hoping to win with every class, doomed. Archer, Barbarian, Bard, Beastfighter, Druid, Elementalist, Farmer, Fighter, Monk, and ULE Priest down.
