Priest

Priest #

This spell-casting class can gain the power of the gods by staying faithful to them and offering up prayers, enabling them to use miracles. They are mainly geared toward healing and support.

Priests must choose one faith: the Supreme God, the Earth Mother, the Valkyrie, the Trade God, or the God of Knowledge. They cannot worship multiple deities. This, any character who has acquired priest cannot acquire dragon priest, which worships ancestral dragons.
