How it works
During a roleplay, a Priest is able to use their Holy energy in the form of magic. Generally, Priests aligned under Valryn or Asanto prefer to heal, those under Myira and Verin prefer to fight, and those under Waer are evenly balanced.
* Regardless of alignment, all priests are stronger than normal against Angels and Demons.
- At level 10, Priests are granted access to special Class-based skills found in the Magic Shop.
- At level 25, Vanquish becomes Divine Vanquish

With Twilight Vanquish, twice per roleplay, Vanquish is able to change elements to Light (if under Valryn or Asanto), Shadow (if under Verin or Myira), or both: One time Light, one time Shadow (if under Waer)
Special:DIVINE WORSHIP Once per roleplay, the Priest can take the form and abilities of their God or Goddess. While in their Divine Form, the Priest is equipped with the God's Holy Weapon, wears armor of the God's Aura Color, and gains control over that God's element.
* See the Gods/Goddesses Bios in the Library for additional Information
WEAPON
Most Priests generally wield whatever weapon their god wields. Their weapon is usually the color of their god's, as well. .
All Priests can wield staves, but under certain gods/goddesses they may wield swords or a bow and arrows.
ARMOUR
Priests usually wear loose robes, but never armour. Armour blocks their magic abilities, just as robes assist them. Their robes are usually the Aura Color of their God's.
Priests can wear robes.
MAGIC
Since nearly all Priests and Priestesses are trained in using white magic, they are extremely efficient in healing. Occasionally a Priest follows a darker God/Goddess and trains in Black Magic as well, but can never learn holy magic in return.
Priests under Valryn and Asanto can learn Advanced White Magic.
Priests under Myira and Verin can learn Advanced Black Magic.
Priests under Waer can learn Intermediate Black and White Magic.
COMMON RACES
Since Priests usually require only an affinity for holy power and white magics, they can be found throughout most races. They are most common in Elvish and divine races due to their strong connection with holy beings and magic.
