Clerics

Clerics are priests and monks, guided by their unshakable faith in a greater power. Their loyalty is rewarded with tremendous powers of healing and curing, and their primary role is that of healers. Because of their generally peaceful nature, clerics are unable to employ the crueler weapons of bloodshed and war.
Characteristics: Clerics are the most contemplative of adventurers, and seldom engage in physical exertion, except while in the duty to their god.

Clerics are healers who work much better as supporters of warriors, rather than doing straight battle themselves. With the great healing skills that turn the tides of battle, it isn't a surprise that clerics make up almost half the population.

Role Playing Suggestions:

• A humble, caring person who is continually shocked by the brutality of this world may act as a protector if it was for a worthy cause.
• A zealous follower who spreads the word of their god to everyone met would gladly heal, hoping a bit of their god's spirit was infused in the flesh of the non-believers.
• A primitive person who would appear to be more of a shaman than a holy man, could turn out to be a very loyal friend.
