OOC Discussion: Behaviors of Clerics
-
Will add to this when I can but I will use this to indicate behaviors and such if the clergy regarding clerics compared to the squires and knights.
-
Clerics will be require to have a clerical robe befitting of Lathander like the one in the Eveningstar prestige shop to wear for rituals and events within the temple not permanently in a suit of Armor.
Use of blunt weapons is suggested as we are clerics not fighters and Paladins with big swords and double blades.
Charity work in around Eveningstar to aid the people as is our work through the temple. eg: Providing food and cloth as well as prayer and blessings. //ooc could be done by crafting and forums posts in ic descriptions or going as far as like screenies of donating said things. use your imagination but remember we confront evil too but at the same time with our posts we tend to the temple which does set us somewhat apart from the knights in the quests out into the world. But at the same time we are to aid the knights with prayer and blessings and aid and spreading the word of Lathander.

As an Awakened many prayers and trials will have to be witnessed to account for their faith a dedication to Lathander not so much as heroic acts but acts of healing and aiding. Any spell that would be of negative energy or darkness of course would be taboo but I think this is ooc common sense your not going to use command undead or create undead as a cleric of Lathander.
An effort to get involved in ic conversations with everyone and especially the knights as we are their wise council on all things pertaining to the religion and following of Lathander and we should make more of an effort to assume this role rather than mechanical buff bots.
Will add more later as I think of it but feel free if anyone has more ideas lets get those brain juices flowing!

After some rp with the character Henry I would like to add that perhaps we make it a thing to be officially considered an Awoken for the Order of Aster to take interest in someone they must first me anointed as an Awoken by a clergy member and prayed over if of course one is available in the order. if ooc there is no player as a clergy member then it would fall to the knights to declare one as an awoken. What do you guys think as I just anointed Henry as an Awoken through prayer and anointing his forhead with holy water in the name of Lathander.
